Large/small pieces of fabric
This section provides information on embroidering
fabric that is either much larger or much smaller
than the embroidery frame.
■ Embroidering large pieces of fabric
or heavy clothing
When embroidering large pieces of fabric or heavy
pieces of clothing, use a clothespin or binder clip to
fasten the excess fabric to the embroidery frame so
that it does not hang down from the frame.
Embroidering with excess fabric hanging down from
the embroidery frame may prevent the frame from
moving properly and may result in a misaligned
pattern.
• Use a clothespin or binder clip to fasten the excess
fabric to the embroidery frame.
■ Embroidering small pieces of fabric
When embroidering pieces of fabric that are smaller
than the embroidery frame, use spray fabric
adhesive to attach the fabric to stabilizer (backing)
hooped in the embroidery frame. With fabrics where
you do not wish to use spray adhesive, baste the
fabric to the stabilizer (backing).

When embroidering the corner of a piece of fabric,
use spray fabric adhesive to attach the corner of the
fabric to stabilizer (backing), and then hoop the
stabilizer (backing) in the embroidery frame. With
fabrics where you do not wish to use spray adhesive,
baste the fabric to the stabilizer (backing).

fabric, such as ribbon
When embroidering narrow pieces of fabric, use
spray fabric adhesive to attach the fabric to stabilizer
(backing), and then hoop the stabilizer (backing) in
the embroidery frame. With fabrics where you do
not wish to use spray adhesive, clamp both ends of
the fabric, together with the stabilizer (backing), in
the embroidery frame.
