  • How to make a transfers. Transfer Any Image For Embroidery - Step 1
    Step 1

    Collect all your supplies, I always like having my materials in front of me before I start a project! You need a hoop, scissors, thread(whatever brand you prefer), embroidery needle, fabric, Solvy Sulky(my secret weapon), tape and whatever image it is that you are wanting to embroider. This image is for a friend and the logo is for his band.

    Next you want to cut a good piece of Solvy Sulky, enough to cover the design and enough to fit in the hoop while you are stitching.. So base it on those two things! Then you are going to tape the Solvy Sulky onto the design.

    Now for removing any lines and Solvy Sulky you have on your item. You want to wash it under warm tap water with any kind of soap.. I work a lather into my palm before adding the piece and wash gently against the fabric, rinse well!
