I absolutely loved the cowboy hat. I had a craft show coming up at a horse rescue farm. This looked like the perfect time to put it on…

My eagle turned out great, next time I need to use a better background color. I thought it would pop out more on a denim jacket. Great quality…

Q1: Does this design require a specific needle?
Pro Tip: For most fabric projects, an 80/12 universal needle works well. If you are using lighter materials, switch to a smaller needle size to keep the stitches clean.
Q2: What type of stabilizer is recommended for this embroidery?
Quick Note: For stable fabrics like quilting cotton, a medium-weight tear-away stabilizer is typically the best choice to keep the fabric flat while the pattern stitches out.
Q3: How do I transfer Bees Quilting to my embroidery machine?
Yes, dear! Simply download the ZIP file to your computer, extract the contents, and copy the machine-specific format file onto a USB thumb drive to plug into your machine.
Q4: How should I wash items featuring this design?
Pro Tip: Always wash your finished creations in cool water with mild detergent and either air dry or tumble dry on a low heat setting to preserve the stitch quality.
Q5: How does the system prevent me from buying the same design twice?
Quick Note: When you are logged into your account, the Bees Quilting product page will display a confirmation message and replace the cart button with a download link if you have already purchased the file.
