Q1: What needle size should I use?
Pro Tip: A 75/11 or 80/12 universal needle usually does the trick for this design. If you're working with delicate fabrics, opt for a smaller needle. For metallic threads, a specialized 80/12 or 90/14 metallic needle is best to avoid breaks.
Q2: What kind of stabilizer works best?
For most stable fabrics like cotton or denim, a medium-weight cut-away or tear-away stabilizer is recommended. If you're working with fuzzy fabrics (like fleece), use a water-soluble topping to keep stitches from sinking in.
Q3: Can I change the size of the design?
Quick Note: We advise against resizing this design by more than 10%. Going beyond that can affect the stitch density and alter the final look of the pattern.
Q4: How should I care for my embroidered item?
Wash your embroidered items gently in cool water with mild detergent, and air dry or tumble dry on a very low setting. To iron, always do so from the reverse side, using a pressing cloth to protect the stitches.
Q5: Where can I find my purchased files?
Yes, dear! Your files are immediately available in your account after purchase. Just log in and click the "Download" icon or select "My Downloads" from the menu to access your machine embroidery pattern and other formats.
