3D Puff Embroidery

January 20, 2022Leave a comment

In this example I used a 3d Puff Font called Varsity. You can get it here. It’s from Creative Appliques.

The font is stitched over this 3d Foam which is also made specifically for embroidery. I just love the dimension it adds to any design. I used my Ricoma EM1010 to stitch the examples above, but you can easily use a single needle machine as well.

Check out the video below for all of the instructions and details.

MAKER Hand Santizer Holder

February 15, 2021Leave a comment

Can I just say that Bright COLORS make me happy. I knew when I designed this MAKER Hand Sanitizer Holder embroidery file that I needed color. I needed happy, spring and vibrant colors.

I created these cutie patooties in the Chroma Luxe software. They are so simple to stitch out on any multi-needle or single-needle embroidery machine. I will be using the Ricoma EM1010 multi-needle in my tutorial below. If you are using a single-needle the steps are the same, you’ll just be stopping to switch threads.

I think these would be super cute to take to your next crafting get together or to gift to your fellow MAKERS.

In today’s tutorial I will be showing you how to use the FRAME OUT feature on the Ricoma. It works really well if you need to stop occasionally during a stitch out, but not after each step.

How to add Embroidery to a Towel

November 11, 2020November 5, 20202 Comments

I am back with another embroidery project. I used my Ricoma EM1010 embroidery machine to create personalized towels for the guest bath.

Now, I am not sure why Wrigley always has to get his nose into things, but he does. Every single time I take a photo in this particular spot, here he comes.

So, why do I feel the need to add names to the guest bath towels? Is it just my house, or do your kids feel the need to get a new towel for every day that they are at your house? I get it, they don’t know which towel belongs to who by the next day, so they get a fresh towel.

However, since I have added their names to the towels they are able to use their towels more than once. It worked! Simple solution. I used my multi-needle machine to create the large names, but you can use a single needle embroidery machine like the one I have to create a similar design. I’ve listed the step by step tutorial that I used for this set below. Keep scrolling to see my embroidery on towels tutorials with a single needle machine.
