Great Threads

This blog is all about Embroidery. I have been doing embroidery for about 12 years and I love. I have an SWF industrial embroidery machine. It has served me well all these years, and it sure doesn't hurt to have 1 or 2 mechanics around at any given time. 

Embroidery is one of those things that look good on just about any garment, hat, bag and the list goes on. If you can think it ,I can probably put some embroidery on it. 


All embroidery starts with a design of some kind, then its taken and put in my embroidery software where the magic comes in. That flat one dimensional design now starts to become this beautiful dimensional design with shadow and color and shine if you use rayon thread.


The process is called digitizing it is an art form of its own and no 2 people will make the same design look exactly alike. It's like painting no 2 painter's will paint exactly the same. When you digitize you are placing stitches in the design and making it embroidery and bringing it to life. This special software helps make these designs so beautiful you can be more creative as the design develops the possibilities are endless.  Click on the below picture for a better view. This is a black satin jacket, angels on back and front it's a beauty.                                                                       

The front of the jacket has similar angels.
