Tips for Using Machine Embroidery to Embroider a Tee Shirt -- Prevent Puckers and Keep the Tee Shirt Drape. The most common complaints about machine embroidery on tee shirts and sweat shirts is that the embroidery is stiff and the embroidery doesn't drape like the rest of the garment. Everyone wants a soft pliable easy to wear tee shirt or sweat shirt, not a stiff shirt. Embroidering a finished garment is a bit more challenging than embroidering a piece of fabric and then transforming the fabric into a garment but it is not impossible. It is successful when you take your time hooping and stabilizing the shirt. The design you choose plays a large part in how the shirt will drape when the embroidery is finished. Stabilizer plays a major role in machine embroidery. There more and more stabilizers becoming available to the home machine embroidery market all the time. Always wash the shirt before you embroider it. Here's the step by step way to have successful machine embroider on a tee shirt or sweat shirt.

I’ve made each of my kids their own bath towel hoodie when they’re born, starting with my son 6 years ago. I make them one with their name on it and one with a fun appliqued shape on the back. These towels are super easy to make, needing only limited sewing know-how. And they make for great birthday or baby shower presents for others. Supplies for Bath Towel Hoodies: one large bath towel – any colorone hand towel – any colorfabric for letters – can be anything.

First, cut your hand towel in half horizontally. Updated: You only need one half of the hand towel to make one hooded bath towel. Pin the cut hand towel to the large towel and sew in place. Fold your hood together in half, pairing the cut side together. You could be done here, but I like to add a few extras, a name or a shape to the back that I applique to the towel. I’ve also added some double-bias tape to my newest baby’s towel, down the sides and on the hood.
