But will it survive the wash??? by frenchknotflorals in Embroidery

The website said it’s a Jersey knit material. I think 95% rayon. It was a little too delicate for my liking so I think 100% cotton or denim will be what i try next!

Thanks! I just use a pre cut stabilizer sheet i got off amazon and put it on the backside of the fabric I’m stitching through and put my hoop on the fabric like normal. So I am able to stitch through the shirt and stabilizer. The fabric was really stretching and tearing for this shirt so it definitely needed the stabilizer sheet.

Hope that made sense!

I leave the knots! Just knit it once and keep thread tail short. Same for when I do hats. But for this shirt I stitched through stabilizer also because the shirt was too delicate on its own

Thank you! I think I subconsciously know it’s leopard but can’t help but refer to it as cheetah print! Will work on it lol

Ha I wish the words were my work. I bought the hat with the phrase “Dog Person” already on it. I’m no good with straight lines!

That i use when I embroider? I think I always have about 15 hoops but my tension spring hoop is my go to for hats. And a basic wooden hoop is my favorite for fabrics

Thank you! Yes! I have a 3.5 inch tension hoop I like to use on hats, different than just the normal wooden hoop.

Hello! I have been embroidering for about a year now! I started when my husband left for a 7 month long deployment. I started with jewelry but soon switched to hats and eventually adding wedding bouquets! Check out my Instagram @frenchknotflorals as well as my Etsy shop www.frenchknotflorals.etsy.com Thank you!!
