my most project ambitious yet by far! ended up being a 2 hr stitch out. there was a birds nest on the W on the hat but i was thankfully able to salvage it. lmk any feedback :) (im aware of the slight shifting on the satin outline)

I’m practicing on scrap fabric before trying to embroider a blanket! I have SE 700 and I am a beginner so please be nice. I’ve rethreaded the machine multiple times, switched out the bobbin and made sure the bobbins in correctly, and I’m using stabilizer. I made sure my thread was embroidery thread. Should I change my needle? I just used Artspira to make this design. I don’t know what to do next. I feel like it’s not smooth at all

Hi friends,

Would appreciate any answers with knowledge on this matter

My question is about fill stitches & their relation to push/pull.

How do you plot these large areas such as in this uchiha fan design in a way that the design will not warp etc.

Is there another stitch type that is better than regular tatami fill? I bought a design just like this one and found that it warped easily.. i noticed the stitches are going the same direction which I understand should be avoided. Anything else worth noting?

Knocked out these hats for Allegheny Truck Repair today. We went with a bright lime green thread against matte navy 5-panels.

Trying to decide if the high-contrast green works well here or if a more subdued accent (like silver/white borders) would make the center wrenches pop even better.

What do you think of the stitch clarity and color combo? Any feedback on the digitized layout is welcome.

Any one else have trouble using their pen on the free draw mode on hatch 4? I have the UGEE pen connected to my device. Sometimes it’ll draw on hatch but most of the time it does not pick anything up. Any advice?

Four months ago I brought the machine in for service because the thread was winding around the inner workings of the machine (I removed the cover case by the needle to see it). It was fixed and worked fine until this week when it happened again (see the photo). I rarely use the machine but I do keep it serviced regularly. Why is this happening? Has anyone else experienced this?

production dept is getting a bit of distortion along the bottom of designs when embroidering down towards the brim for hat front side panels. They have tried moving the design up a bit and slowing the machine down, but there’s still a bit of warping – any advice?

(photo is not a sample of our problem, just an example from google images of location)

I've been talking to a couple of Chinese manufacturers about their machines. The prices are very low compared to Happy, Barudan & Tajima. A new 2 head machine is half the price of a used single head Barudan or Tajima here in Australia. Has anyone bought one in the last 12 months, and what was your experience? Currently talking to Feiya but have also spoken to Wonyo. Thanks.

Hello, i’m new to embroidery and just got a Brother PE900. I keep getting the “check and rethread upper thread” message, stopping the embroidery. I have been unable to get through a 10 minute project without it stopping with that message more than 10 times during the project. I took a video and am also noticing some kind of banging noise from the machine when it happens. Any help/advice appreciated! Thank you!

Hi everyone need a bit of help with this as complete newbie.
I’m looking at my first embroidery machine for a small business (small budget and not looking at spending over the odds). There are two machines I’m looking at

Brother V3 Special Edition £1,300
Brother VR £2,200

Both comes with threads and the V3 comes with PE deisgn2 the VR doesn’t come with any software. Both machines are well maintained and low usage.

I would be looking to embroider and digitalise my own designs which I know is a challenge but also aware of how expensive software is.

Advice on machines? And digitalisation software?
