Creating Beautiful Embroidery

The various precautions concerning the thread, embroidery frames and stabilizers (backings) that must be

observed in order to create beautiful embroidery are described below.

Threads

Embroidery thread can be costly, therefore caring

for it should be a priority. No matter how well a

thread is manufactured, it must be appropriately

stored if it is to sew properly. This is especially true

when one considers the time that lapses between

delivery to the thread user and the moment the

thread is actually used on the embroidery machine.

It is important that embroidery threads be stored in

an environment that is free of damaging agents

such as excessive heat, light or moisture.

Embroidery threads are best stored in an area that is

as clean and dust-free as possible. It is also

important that the storage area be free of smoke,

fumes and gases. Certain gases may cause the

thread to yellow. These fumes originate from such

appliances as gas heaters or from gas or diesel

engines.

Direct sunlight is also extremely destructive for

embroidery threads. Boxes of thread should not be

left open and exposed to direct sunlight. If possible,

skylights and windows should be diffused. The best

type of lighting for embroidery thread is tungsten-

filament or fluorescent tubes. It is important to

remember that prolonged exposure to these

harmful sources may also cause the colors of

cardboard boxes and other objects to fade.

Temperature and humidity also pose a threat to

embroidery threads. The ideal conditions are

between 59

°F and 77 °F (or 15 °C and 25 °C).

Humidity should be between 40% and 60%. These

conditions should be kept as constant as possible in

order to prevent mildew from forming. Excessive

temperatures can also cause lubrication problems

that ultimately result in thread breaks. Damp

conditions can affect paper bobbins as the

cardboard will swell and the thread can become

oversized. It is also important to realize that even if

the overall storage conditions are good, there may

be “spot problems” where a thread is exposed to a

heat source or bright lights. Ensuring that thread

does not become damaged requires that stock be

frequently rotated and that threads are not left in

the same place for an extremely long time.

Choice of thread is a major factor in improving

production time. The thread run ability, strength,

consistency and weight all affect output. These

qualities determine how well the machine will sew

and the number of thread breaks during sewing.

Thread breaks have an important influence on

production. Each thread break reduces output by at

least 0.07% a day (7.5 hours), assuming that it takes

20 seconds to rethread a needle. For every

reduction of 14 thread breaks per a day, output can

be improved by more than 1.0 %.

Stabilizers (backing)

Backing and topping serve to stabilize and support

the product being embroidered so the stitches can

be sewn with the least amount of interference or

instability. They serve as stabilizers for your

embroidery work. Without the proper type of

stabilizer, the fabric may move too much within the

embroidery frame causing poor alignment of the

embroidery. At times, topping will be required in

order to manage fabrics with a pile-like surface,

such as towels, corduroy and piqué knit. There are

many types of backing and toppings with various

weights for the various fabrics that you may be

sewing.

There are four types of stabilizers (backing) that can

be used in embroidery: cut-away, tear-away, water

soluble and self-adhesive. In these four types,

various weights, sizes and textures are available.

When selecting the stabilizer type for a particular

fabric, consider the design size in addition to the

stitch count and stitch type used in the design.

Finally, make sure that the stabilizer is not

stretched. Some backings may not stretch vertically

or horizontally but may stretch diagonally. DO

NOT USE THESE TYPES. This type of backing will

stretch during sewing and may cause the design to

shift.

1. Polyester mesh cut-away stabilizer works

extremely well with light-colored fabrics since

it prevents a shadow from showing through on

the front after you have trimmed away the

excess. This type of backing is ideal whenever

you need stability with a light and soft touch in

your finished product, for example, with baby

garments.
