Q1: Which fabrics are best for this piece?
This design performs best on stable wovens like quilting cotton, linen, or denim. Because it is a light density pattern, these fabrics provide a firm base while allowing the background to show through naturally.
Q2: Can I adjust the size of Ruby Sewing Quit?
We recommend keeping any size changes within a 10% limit. Adjusting the scale beyond that can interfere with the stitch density and compromise the clarity of the lines.
Q3: May I iron over the finished embroidery?
Yes, but please protect the threads. Always press from the reverse side of your fabric and use a pressing cloth to avoid direct contact with the high heat of your iron.
Q4: Where do I access the files after buying?
Pro Tip: Once your purchase is complete, your files are stored in your account. Simply log in, navigate to the My Downloads section, and you will find instant access to all included formats.
Q5: Are the Ruby Sewing Quit thread colors set in stone?
Not at all! Think of the provided color chart as a helpful guide. Your machine will automatically pause at each color stop, giving you the freedom to swap threads to match your own creative style.
