Thanks for the advice! The transferring tips are really helpful, since sometimes I avoid new projects because I don't want to transfer the design.

This is amazing, thank you so much for all the effort you went to for this. You have covered all of my questions and more that I hadn't yet thought of. I also have ADHD so I struggle sitting through entire videos but everything was relevant and the information/tips were all presented in a very chronological way, so it kept my interest the whole way through. At the moment I'm only doing my first embroidery and I'm sewing purchased patches onto a jacket but this is the next step that I want to learn so I am writing a shopping list of the tools I will need for this next step. Thanks again.

If you are going to embroider on t shirt material what material would you go for or which would be best? 100% Cotton, respun etc? Would you go for a lighter weight? An which type of stabliser would you use? Thanks for all the tips. Really helpful!

@crewelghoul 3 года назад

I would go with 100% cotton medium weight tshirt! It will be way easier to embroider on if it’s not super thin or stretchy 😊

Thank you! I've just finished the classic white linen shirt I love and it's just begging for a design. Are those your 2 dogs? Perfect subject for a sweat shirt. Cute! Looks like a mom and her pup. DMC in my opinion is the gold standard in threads. The best quality & variety of colors. Love your tats btw.

When deciding where you want the design to go, I think it would be easier to turn the sweater inside out and then place the stabilizer. It eliminates the guesswork and finagling

When you use the solvy, what side stays on the inside of the hoop?

@disyabackup3040 2 года назад

Thank you for sharing. Love all the tips and tricks. I love do 3D embroidery on denim. But it always cringkle or stretch all over my embroidery edges. May I have the tips so I can have a nice fine embroidery without cringkle all over the edges? Thank you so much before 💖💖💖💖

I want to do embroidery on my jacket sleeves, will it itch?? that's what I'm afraid of LOL I have been doing embroidery for a few years but never on clothing!

@jasperl1531 3 года назад

what kind of marking device would you use on the super solvy if you were working on a dark fabric? or would you just not and use the stick and stitch one, instead

@crewelghoul 3 года назад

You can use a micron and it will still be slightly visible, but I’d recommend the stick and stitch for darker fabrics!

@noahray9339 2 года назад

Could you also hand draw on the stick and stitch fabric instead of printing?

@emilympurvis 6 месяцев назад

thank you so much!! this video is so clear and helpful. I especially appreciate the product recommendations-- there are so many different stabilizers out there, it's hard to know where to start. I have a question: when working with a product like super solvy and using a permanent marker (like a micron pen) to trace a design, do I have to worry about the black marker showing through the final embroidery piece if I use light colored threads? If anybody out there knows the answer or has thoughts/opinions, I'd love to hear them!

@crewelghoul 4 месяца назад

I don’t usually have a problem with it! You can always do a test swatch to see how everything will look before you commit to it though!

@pie12399 3 месяца назад

when applying the stabilizer, could you just apply it on the shirt inside out since the positioning would be the same when flipped back? would make it a lot easier to apply the stabilizer on the flat shirt inside out rather than trying to fit it through the neck hole

@crewelghoul 3 месяца назад

Yes, I applied it in a very inconvenient way in this video haha

Thank you so much for your insight! Would I need a stabilizer for 100% Organic Cotton fabrics? Thank you

@crewelghoul 2 года назад

You’re welcome! For natural fabrics like cotton you won’t normally need it, but it its kind of thin it wouldn’t hurt to either double up the fabric or use a stabilizer if you’d like!

Yes, 100% cotton works! I’d steer clear of any elastic

What needles do you use on jeans? Sweatshirts? Sweaters?

@crewelghoul 9 месяцев назад

I use embroidery needles mainly for everything. In regards to size, I usually go by strands of thread used and not necessarily material!! I have a post that has a needle size chart that may be helpful here. :) crewelghoul.com/blog/hand-embroidery-needle-sizes-explained-needle-size-chart/

@conservationresearchcommun5584 11 месяцев назад

Can you embroyd on a cotton shirt? If so, do you need a stabiliser?

@crewelghoul 10 месяцев назад

You can! I'd advise choosing one that is 100% cotton without elastic. It never hurts to add a bit of stabilizer on the back, I find it makes things easier to stitch.

@apurupamargapuri4192 2 года назад

How do you go about removing the stabiliser backing?

It depends on what kind you use but there is tear away and water soluble kinds that are removable!

@Zetsubou127 3 года назад

I'm getting into embroidery and I really want to try doing stuff with clothes. Do you have thoughts on the binders that go on the back of your work? Like the ones that you iron on that are supposed to help with texture and longevity?

@crewelghoul 3 года назад

I personally don’t have any experience with them. Whenever I embroider on clothes I double knot all of my threads and wash everything on delicate / hang dry them and it’s held up ok for me! But I’ll have to look into some different products and maybe do a comparison soon!

@marissakessler6489 2 года назад

I have the same question. For a really nice finish, Id love to have a type of permanent stabalizer, like a Pelon 101, that is soft to the touch but hides my knots.

@Kirakiwi21 2 года назад

Can I use any thread for embroidery or should I only use embroidery threads ?

@crewelghoul 2 года назад

Technically you could use regular thread! But I find pearl or stranded cotton embroidery floss has more color options. For stranded floss you can choose to use more than one strand for thicker stitches and lines.

@Kirakiwi21 2 года назад

@@crewelghoul What I can really get rn is some normal thread. It won’t make much of a difference right? And thank you so much

@Prachi-b4w 2 месяца назад

Does embroidery on hoodie also needs a stabilizer on the back ?

@crewelghoul 2 месяца назад

No always if it’s a heavier 100% cotton! But if it’s stretchy I would use some

@TheVloggingPhaseJM Год назад

Do you need to fully take off the stabilizer inside/under the fabric after you’re done or just the leftover on the outside of the design? I’m assuming we leave what’s sort of inside the design and not really visible

I’m a beginner in embroidery but do have good sewing skill. Your videos are very helpful for me to get started. I want to know do I need to wash and heat dry the fabric/clothing before hand in case they may be prone to shrinkage. Are the threads and stabilizers shrink proof ? Thanks for your advice👍

@crewelghoul 2 года назад

So glad you find them helpful! I would definitely prewash the clothes. As for afterwards, it’s ideal to hand wash or delicate wash and hang dry anything you embroider on just to be on the safe side!

@barefacedquestions Год назад

Is the Pellon tear away stabilizer supposed to stay with the clothing? I mean, it looks like you just teared away the excess part, and the part that supported the embroidery was still there?

@crewelghoul Год назад

It usually mostly disintegrates once you wash it. It’s more so just to use while you’re stitching!

I personally don't and I've never had any issues. There are some stabilizers out there that you can iron onto the back, but I have never used them so I'm not sure if they work well with embroidery!
