Why we picked it
New to machine embroidery and lost in the jargon? Hope defines the words you will hear from digitizers and customers: throat plate, bobbin and tension, backing versus topper, left-chest and full-back placement, thread weight, stitch count and color stops, trims and jump stitches, and the main stitch types. She also touches on manual versus auto-digitizing and on woven and freestanding patches. A handy reference to revisit.
