Shake Your
Attention machine embroidery enthusiasts!
Do you enjoy making personalized gifts and accessories for your friends, families and co-workers?
Do you often times opt to buy a gift then pick up a card to go with it and shake your head at the cost of that card?
Do you find yourself strapped for time therefore eliminating large projects yet longing for a creative outlet?
Do you want another way to save money?
It's time for you to include another medium to your embroidery and try doing embroidery on paper. There is virtually no learning curve to do this and is very easy for the beginner, yet still adored by those who have been using an embroidery machine for years! The embroidery on paper technique is fast, expands the horizons for your craft, is addictive, and provides instant gratification. What more could you want?
To do embroidery on paper, the process is quite simple... actually easier than embroidering on fabric! No need to hoop your paper and NO ugly raw seam edges to hide!
When doing embroidery on paper, you will use your basic embroidery supplies, plus a special paper to support the design, tear away stabilizer and adhesive.
There are a variety of papers available for doing embroidery on paper, and your results will vary depending on the type of paper you choose. Two papers you might like to use use are Kiwi Paper and Quick Stitch Paper.
Kiwi paper is fibrous, has a matte finish and has the feel of light sandpaper. Quick Stitch Paper is smooth, has a glossy finish, is tear and water resistant, and feels like a heavy self adhesive stabilizer with the protective coating in place. Both papers come in a variety of designs and colors on one side and are a light neutral color on the reverse, and enable you to be successful when doing embroidery on paper.
These papers are specially designed to support embroidery designs that have a standard density. In other words, you probably will not get the best results from a "bullet proof" or very densely digitized embroidery design.
The basic steps to do embroidery on paper are:
Hoop your tear away stabilizer
Use spray adhesive to secure the paper to the fabric
Stitch out the design
