    Default ? for machine embroiders

    I want to embroidery on satin. Is there anything different I need to do? What kind of stabilizer? etc. Thanks for your help.

    There are lots of tutes if you google it. This is a good pictorial that might help. I would say use a NEW sharp needle. Hope this helps. http://www.emblibrary.com/EL/elproje...log=Elprojects

    Another great resource is http://www.wwwearables.com/technique...ng-needles.htm

    Good luck!

    Don't hoop the satin because you may never get the hoop marks out. Use a sticky back stabilizer or a temporary spray adhesive with a cut away stabilizer.
