Machine Embroidery Tips, Tricks and Projects
Happy National Embroidery Month!
We’re sharing machine embroidery tips, tricks, and projects from experts. Embroidery has been around for centuries, so what better occasion to highlight this art form than National Embroidery Month.
From hand embroidery to machine embroidery, you can create just about any design you want! Speaking of creating an array of designs, check out the below posts to get embroidery project ideas, tips and inspiration here on WeAllSew.
Embroidered Bench Pillow
This adorable Bench Pillow is the perfect accessory to brighten any indoor or outdoor space. The addition of “Welcome Home” from built-in lettering on the embroidery machine is the perfect complement to the rose design from the BERNINA Exclusive Design Collection #82024 Life is Rosey. The designs in this collection include the entire alphabet created with roses with lots of extra designs perfect for monogramming!
Embroidery With Word Art
There are so many gorgeous and professionally digitized embroidery designs in the world, why not use them to personalize gifts, clothing, accessories, or home décor? Kate Toney from Tough Kitten Crafts shows you how to take something pre-made and add your own personal touch to it using lettering and embroidery designs!
Ten Tips for Using Stabilizer
An important part of stitching beautiful machine embroidery designs is the correct use of stabilizers. There are many types of stabilizers for different embroidery situations. If you are new to machine embroidery, it may be confusing to know which one to use when. There are guidelines to help you decide which stabilizer to use but there is no one answer for every embroidery scenario. It is a matter of trial and error, testing, and experience. Try these ten stabilizer tips to help get great stitching results!
What Makes a Good Embroidery Design?
If you’re into machine embroidery, you know that there are thousands, probably hundreds of thousands, of designs out there. Some are sold in collections; some may be purchased individually, and others are actually free! No matter what type of style you’re looking for, it’s out there: elegant, whimsical, masculine, rustic, floral, you name it and you can stitch it. But how do you know if you’re getting a “good” design? Here are five ways to ensure that the designs you select are high-quality designs that you will stitch over and over again.
Why So Many Hoops?
Every embroidery machine comes with at least one and usually more hoops. Plus there are others that you may purchase to add to your hoop collection. But do you really need multiple hoops? Let’s find out!
Downloading and Transferring Designs to a USB Stick
When you purchase an embroidery machine, most will come with built-in designs that are easy to access and ready to stitch, and that’s great! But there are so many “perfect” designs to choose from for purchase. Whether you purchase online and download, or purchase designs or design collections on media such as USB sticks or CDs, you will need to get them into the embroidery machine. Take a look at how it’s done!
Using the Wreath Tool in BERNINA Embroidery Software 8.2
The Wreath tool is easily the most fun feature of BERNINA Embroidery Software 8.2! You can turn a single design element into a complex arrangement quickly and easily, with just a few clicks. BERNINA Educator, Sylvain Bergeron, shows you how to do it in this tutorial.
How to Digitize Embossed Embroidery
Monogrammed towels . . . been there, done that. To create something a little different this time, digitize the monogram in BERNINA Embroidery Software v8.1 so that parts of the toweling are compressed flat with stitches and the parts that were are unstitched puff up, giving the design a little more dimension. Your guests will take a second look the next time they dry their hands!

I love making kitchen towels with each holiday theme. I have a large family and can give them each a towel to let them know I am thinking of them while we are separated. I can drive them to some people, others I need to mail, but generally each holiday I make 14-15 kitchen towels with the holiday theme. I have also made large medallion style pillows for Christmas embroidered on silk duponi. They turned out lovely. I am wanting to stitch a nice pattern on a denim shirt I purchased and will decide on the design for that soon. I seem to get wrapped up on assembly line stitchign for the kitchen towels and forget about my own projects.

-
I wish the computer part of obtaining & digitizing a pattern was easier.,. Once it’s on the stick its no problem…it’s the computer that drives me Nuts!! Now I hear that the sticks info degrades over time! Its just one big headache after another!! My goal was to simply draw my design & repeat it with my machine… Sounds so simple but never is! I am better off drawing my design with freemotion on the longarm. Thus my embroidery machine just sits there and was a waste of money & time! The main problem is the computer that just keeps updating and it is another waste of money & time! I guess there really isn’t a question that can be answered but thanks for letting me vent about the usual computer blues.

Really a wonderful gift when you give famous art.
Check out your local dealer for their embroidery groups.

I’d like to learn more ways to hoop with materials other than just stabilizer. Sometimes stabilizer add too much stiffness to your project and polymesh isn’t always the best alternative. I’ve used starched muslin with good success on a project but that’s just one possibility.
I’d also like to learn some alternative ways to do applique. Many designs have you place a piece fabric which is then tacked down, then you remove the hoop and trim away the excess fabric — rinse and repeat several times. It can tedious and laborious if your design has a lot of elements. I been trying to figure out how to make a printout of the individual elements so I can use the prints as templates to cut the fabric elements to size so I don’t have to trim but I just don’t know enough to make that happen.
Any suggestions would be very helpful.

I would like to learn more about stabilizers and using them with different fabrics. I really wish you would have more information on older embroidery versions. I have the original version 5 and I feel like I’ve been totally forgotten. I love my machine and the software.
-
I would like to learn more about selecting the right stabilizer.
-
I would like to be more confident in my embroidery. It took me 18 months to take the machine out of the box and I only embroider every couple months, mostly names. I would like to learn about digitizing, but don’t think I ready yet, and I would really like to have more classes where I’m actually making something to help me build up confidence. Thanks.
-
I would love to see an in depth lesson on stabilizers for different applications. I just love making gifts, especially monogrammed items and I always wish about what support I need when embroidering different things!

I love doing machine embroidery on my Bernina! It always looks professional. I would like to learn what I can do with software!

I love my Bernina and am ready to jump full into embroidery. I’m such a newby that I want to know first steps to effective and enjoyable embroidery. While I know there is a learning curve, it’s so easy to become frustrated with things don’t go as expected.

-
I would love a review of the point to point feature (perhaps project/example oriented…I personally learn better by applying the instructions as I go along). I figure it out, but by the time I use it again, I end up having to start all over. I can benefit from anything. My other Bernina was an 180E and 20 years old. Things have definitely changed.

I would like to start from the beginning on how to embroider. My first embroidery projects was on thick fleece, one for my granddaughter which was perfect and the second one was for my best friend which was a disaster. I ended up hand embroidering. Whenever I embroider I hold my breath and pray for success. How can I get to a comfort zone with embroidery? It should not be this hard, should it? I know I need to keep at it but stop for quite a while before I attempt another embroidery project. I guess I’m asking for how to set up your machine and embroider for success on all projects.

I’ve heard various things, and will read more in depth with the article above, 5) why is there an option to purchase dif sizes of embroidery patterns when you can increase or decrease size on your machine, 6) why do I sometimes get a rats nest on the back of my embroidery?
