I simply brought up the existing embroidery design in the new Wilcom software, enlarged it and ran it. It ran better than the original! It would have taken hours to do the same on my previous software and the result would have been marginal.Monica
I doubt you will find any other embroidery software that even comes close to the quality of Wilcom keyboard lettering. You will probably need and use keyboard lettering more than any other feature.Rich Medcraft
Best investment I have made. I've owned several software packages and out of all of them Wilcom is the best embroidery software. Definitely recommend to anyone buying software to start with Wilcom, they won't be disappointed.R. Mitchell
I'm loving the software, works really well with my Barudans (even have one with a sequin dispenser on it). I know my digitizing customers like the quality that I'm able to produce with the software as well. Keep it up.Evan West, Wild West Designs

Whenembroidering, the right thread tension is essential. For some materials, suchas lightweight or thin fabrics, it's good to individually adjust the presserfoot pressure and the thread tension. Your bernette 70 DECO offers thesepractical features. Voluminous projects can be challenging, but with theincluded hopper embroidery foot thestitches turn out beautifully.
With the CutWork Tool you can create appliqués, hole embroidery or cut out several layers of fabric at the same time. The tutorial video shows you where you can find the CutWork designs on your machine and how to use the CutWork tool to create unique designs.
Working with a Satin Fill, there are normally just 2 needle penetrations: one on each side of the object, if it is small enough. Working with a Step Fill, V8 adds more needle penetrations because of the appearance of the embroidery. This means more thread usage.
In summary, embroidery designs are mostly digitized with Satin Fills (simple designs, letters, numbers and different characters) or Step Fills. With Satin stiches you will need less thread, compared to Step Fills, generally speaking. When using Fantasy Fills, Candlewicking Fills etc. you will need much more thread, because of the intricated patterns that are made.
I have investigated a lot, searching for information with thread dealers, companies and brands. There are many spools and cones with different yardage (meters and/or feet/yards) available for machine embroidery. There are small spools with 150m or 200m, but also large spools/cones with 500m, 1000m, 2000m, and even 5000m (last quantity mostly used with professional embroidery machines).
Remember that most commercial embroidery designs for personal use = domestic embroidery machine, are digitized for Wt40 threads (Rayon or Polyester): generally you will need approx. 2/3 in length for top thread, relative to 1/3 bobbin thread**.
Remember thread usage calculations are for top thread only: normally you can say that you will use the same amount for bobbin threads, but that is not always the case. It all depends on tension and selected stitches. Normally the top thread will be slightly visible at the underside of the embroidery, against the stabilizer. That means there is more usage of top thread than bobbin thread (2/3 top, 1/3 bobbin). But overall, if your design requires 252 metres top thread, be sure to have the same amount of bobbin thread ready when using just one color for the entire design, just to be on the safe side. With using matching colors = changing bobbin thread while also changing the top thread, you will need approximately the same amount for both.
Once you've decided between digitizing your logo for embroidery or having the expert team at Merchology put the work in for you; next comes the fun part - choosing your items! From Quick Ship Clothing for when you need things fast, custom Bags and Backpacks to welcome the new employee, or specially curated MerchBoxes with the coolest corporate gifts all in one single box!
Input your desired dimensions for your embroidered logo or design. This will be the exact size that your image will appear on your product, so make sure to carefully measure the available space for embroidery on the product first! Once you have it just right make sure to lock the picture before moving on to the next step.
There are a variety of different stitch types that are used to accomplish different looks, textures, and more. Each stitch type has a maximum stitch length that must be taken into consideration. You should also consider fabric type and the "push and pull" of the garment when selecting your stitch types. Here are the 3 most common machine embroidery stitch types.
Also known as the tatami stitch or the ceding stitch, the fill stitch is typically used to fill in patterns, just like its name suggests. Fill stitches use alternating lines to give the embroidery a woven appearance. The maximum stitch length for fill stitches is 4mm.
There are a few steps you need to take to get your embroidery machines ready to stitch out your digitized company logo or design. First you need to inform the machine about the design elements by selecting the proper needles, threads, orientation, and embroidery sequence. Make sure that your machine has your required thread colors. Next, position your products or fabric in your embroidery loops or embroidery frames and slide them into the arms of the embroidery machine.
Watch your embroidery machine go to work on your newly digitized logo or design. This should only take a few minutes! Once its finished, inspect the embroidered design to see if you need to make any digitizing adjustments before you embroider your products. If necessary, make the adjustments and test again until you're satisfied with the result. Then you're ready to embroider products with your perfectly digitized logo!
Now that you know how a logo is digitized it's time to learn how your digitized logo is applied to your garments. There are a few different embroidery techniques that can be used to achieve different textures and depths. Here's a look at the embroidery techniques we use here at Merchology.
Custom embroidery is our most popular decoration method used to customize apparel here. That's because custom embroidery looks great, is durable, and is affordable, especially in bulk. Embroidery is most commonly used to customize polos, sweatshirts, jackets, bags, and hats. Learn more about the commercial embroidery process here.
Laser applique embroidery is a form of layered embroidery that's used to give a textured look to a large embroidered logo. Applique embroidery is a great way to save stitches for large logos on custom sweatshirts and jackets! Read our complete step by step guide to custom laser applique embroidery here.
The embroidery process for custom patches is as simple as it gets (unless you're creating an embroidered design on the patch). All you need to do is set the outline of the patch, select straight stitch, and let the machine go to work. At Merchology we only use patch embroidery for custom hats and custom beanies. 2ff7e9595c
