Many things can happen when stitching a design. So, we've<br />

listed several items below to consider when working with<br />

before they are added to the website and sold.<br />

Jump Stitches converted to Running Stitches­ Some<br />

embroidery software programs will convert jump stitches<br />

to running stitches with slight resizing.<br />

Stabilizer is KEY!<br />

Keep in mind that stabilizer is a tool, it is used to<br />

keep your fabric stable so that is doesn’t shift or move<br />

while stitching and after the fact during washing,<br />

wearing, etc.<br />

Very few fabrics don't need stabilizer.<br />

Always choose the right stabilizer for the fabric/design<br />

combination.<br />

If you're having registration issues [outlines not lining<br />

up with your fill], you probably need more/better<br />

stabilizer.<br />
