Nylon Backing
Nylon backing is used with many knits and stretch fabrics. Use nylon as a substitute for
Softouch if the design is not worn against the skin. Hooping procedures for nylon are
identical to those for Softouch backing.
Backing Paper
Backing paper is used beneath fabrics with a looped or rough texture, e.g., towels or canvas,
and with garments that have a rubber lining, e.g., rain slickers or waterproof bags. This allows
the hooped garment to move smoothly while sewing, decreasing the chance of dragging. The
backing paper is not put in the hoop with the material, but is placed under the hoop, between
the garment and the sewing surface. When the embroidery is finished the paper can be pulled
away.
CAUTION! Backing paper has a tendency to shred during sewing. Small
pieces of paper can get caught in the hook and jam the machine. Be sure to
clean away all excess pieces of paper that may be left after embroidering.
Water Soluble Topping
Water soluble plastic foil is used as a topping to prevent stitching from getting lost in knit
fabrics, keep terry cloth loops down, and to allow greater clarification of intricate details.
Using Water Soluble Topping
1.
Place water soluble topping on top of the fabric and hoop both.
2.
After the embroidery process is complete, tear away the water soluble topping
outside the design.
3.
Spritz very lightly with warm water to dissolve water soluble topping.
4.
A soft bristle brush may be used to help remove remaining water soluble topping
particles. Pass the brush lightly over the top of embroidery to raise up the topping.
NOTE: Embroidery should not be left damp or wet longer than a few
minutes.
Needle Types
The type of needle you use is determined by the type of fabric you are embroidering.
Normal
Point
Normal point needles pierce, or split, the threads of the fabric
without cutting them. Using normal point needles results in the
cleanest possible stitch.
