Special Embroidery Techniques

In this section you will find videos on some special embroidery techniques that are used beyond the basics. Some of the videos in this section will be found in other sections also, depending on what type of garment that I am using during the application of the special technique.

You will find special techniques such as:

• Working with Difficult Fabrics
• Creating Puff Embroidery on Caps
• Creating Applique
• Patches
• Multiple Hoopings
• Impossible to Hoop Applications
• Using Clamping Systems
• Team Name Organization

There will be many more vidoes added to the section as we develop new ones and as my students request information on subjects that require some extra help.  Please don't hesitate to ask for information that is not in any of the sections that you have viewed.  These videos have all been developed as a result of your need.

How to Embroider a Large Jacket Back Applique

In this embroidery training video I show you how to embroider an large applique on the back of a very thin unlined nylon shell jacket.  You will use the same procdure for embroiderying any large size applique.  The hooping blanket is used because the nylon fabric is very thin and slippery.  You will notice that by using the hooping blanket, we have no pulling up or puckering in our finished product.
