This was an earlier test. The blue dots you see are disappearing fabric marker. The goal was to hoop the fabric so that the embroidery pattern would be at the center of the marks. It takes a few tries to get everything oriented and aligned but it can be done. You’ll have to give yourself a wide margin of error as fabric tends to stretch and compress as you sew it. With enough tests under my belt I was ready to proceed to the actual target fabric. #patches #ironon #irononpatch #irononpatches #sewing #cnc #embroidered #embroidery #crafts #crafting #makermovement #makerrevolution #makers #makersgonnamake #DIY #projects

Trying out this Old English font. I’m helping make some tote bags for a bachelorette party. My part in this is just the embroidery. Someone else will sew the bags together. #patches #ironon #irononpatch #irononpatches #sewing #cnc #embroidered #embroidery #crafts #crafting #makermovement #makerrevolution #makers #makersgonnamake #DIY #projects

A close up. You can see how much the foam raised the embroidery. My first 3D embroidery test design. Sewn using puffy foam to give the embroidery some extra dimension.
