This video popped up on my feed. I’m so glad it did! 🤗 I’m new to embroidery, I’m more of a quilter, and I’m loving it. Your design is beautiful. I’m thinking about embroidering a set of napkins as a gift. How big is the design on your napkin? Is there a standard size for napkin images? Also, what is the stabilizer you used? Thank you so much for this tutorial. It’s great! By the way, love your voice. I can listen to you all day!

@JSternDesigns 2 года назад

You are so welcome! Typically I will work with a 20" square napkin and a 4" design. For stabilizer I use one that completely washes away. My favorite is OESD Aqua Mesh. It looks like a non woven interfacing, but it melts away in the wash!

@michell-n5f 3 года назад

I'm new to machine embroidery and most of my ends are "blurby" < love that term. How do I fix or prevent blurby ends? Thank you for taking the time to make a video for us beginners.

@michell-n5f 3 года назад

Also, the embroidery underneath looks perfect but the embroidery on top , thats menat to be seen, not so much. Any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong? Thank you again.

@JSternDesigns 3 года назад

Michelle Mcvown :) can you tell me what a blurby end means... & If the right side of your embroidery does not look nice, it may be that you need a “topper” to help the stitching settle neatly on the surface of the fabric. A topper is a very lightweight washaway stabilizer like Sulky Solvy. You put a piece on top of the fabric before you start embroidering

@michell-n5f 3 года назад

@@JSternDesigns you called your ends blurby so i just went with the term lol, and thank you. I tried a tear away topper and it looked amazing, until I tore it away lol.. I will definitely try the washaway next time. again, thank you.

@saminamirza5094 4 года назад

Thanks for the tips, Jennifer! I absolutely remember your spectacular garments in the Bernina Fashion Show at the Houston Quilt Festival. My question: are there guidelines on how taut the fabric and stabilizer should be in the hoop? I often end up with puckers after it is unhooped. Which tells me it was too taut. Thank you!

@JSternDesigns 4 года назад

Thanks so much! Hooping the stabilizer, so it's firmly in the hoop provides a stable surface for the embroidery. I don't hoop my fabric because it usually requires pulling around the edges to get it to lay smooth (stretching it out). Instead, I either use 505 Temporary Adhesive Spray or I baste the fabric in the hoop to secure it to the stabilizer.

@matthewzinnel7801 3 года назад

Thank you for all the tips and tricks! I'm a bit new to sewing/quilting and very very new to embroidery. I love making linen napkins, but I have yet to figure out how to make the beautiful border stitch to hide the hem. I see a lot of store bought napkins that have that finish, and so far, I have just used a wing needle and the heirloom stitch on my sewing machine to make an "ok" border stitch to hide the hem line, however, I was wondering if you knew how to do the border stitch on the napkins you used in the video and would be able to demonstrate that sometime. Thank you and keep up the beautiful work you do!

@JSternDesigns 2 года назад

:) Sorry for the delayed response.. You are doing the technique to make the finish that's on my napkins. A wing needle with a hem stitch... I skip that step and get my linen napkins here. bumblebeelinens.com/cotton-linen-napkins-dinner-napkins-c-22_35.html

@brendaharvey7816 3 года назад

Yes in this video you mention how to get the design to the machine I have inherited a pfaff 2144 never used. Had it serviced sews well and embroiyer well but I have gotten the download from pfaff to get going with the internet but I’m lost any suggestions they probably will help but I feel rushed when I talk to them. Do you offer a class over the phone or something since you know the older pfaff machines

@JSternDesigns 2 года назад

So Sorry I didn't see your comment until now! I'm so sorry, I gifted this machine to a friend, so don't have it anymore.. and my "expertise" using it is fading... sorry about that

@danielbooker2590 3 месяца назад

@tessmoore3762 Год назад

My Pfaff has a drop in bobbin, not the front load.

@JSternDesigns Год назад

:) Yes, I think that was a change in design when Singer bought out Pfaff and Viking... I remember going to the Pfaff Dealer Convention in Chicago many years ago (when I was working at a sewing store)... The new models that year all looked like Vikings with the top drop in bobbin. Good News, Same bobbin winding tips apply! Thanks for watching

Hello, greetings from Indonesia. Thank you for the awesome video. May I know what is the name of the stitch on the edge of the cloth and can you share how to make it? Thank you very much..

@JSternDesigns 2 года назад

Yes that is a hem stitch using a wing needle. A wing needle has a flange on both sides of the shaft... Like the needle was run over by a mack truck and squished flat. When you stitch with it, it makes a hole. If you use the blanket stitch that goes forward and then stitches off to the left and back you will get this affect. Hope this helps, and sorry for the delay in responding!

@susanking3991 3 года назад

Can you put a drop of fray check on a loose thread? Would this work or not?

@JSternDesigns 2 года назад

Yes, you can... but be careful... I would check to make sure that the Fray Check drys clear and doesn't leave a "stain" on the linen. Sorry for the delayed response!

@angelaackerman8934 Год назад

Are you using a machine that uses memory cards? How are you copying the designs to the cards.?

@JSternDesigns Год назад

I did these monograms on my Pfaff 2170. This machine has a card reader that connects via USB to allow designs to be transferred from my computer to the machine. This is relatively old technology. I've since traded up to a Brother PRS 100 that has a USB port so I can save designs on the USB stick and opened them up in the machine.
