Digitla Embrodery Machine
A process that creates precise embroidered patterns directly onto carded wool.
An embroidery machine creates precise patterns by stitching thread directly onto carded wool. The machine automates the stitching process, allowing any designs to be produced. The wool is held in place by the embroidery itself, allowing the stitched design to shape and secure the material.
Input materials
Carded wool, washed wool.
How to
1. Create the design digitally.
2. Convert the drawing into stitches : use an embroidery software to translate the drawing into a stitch pattern readable by the machine.
3. Prepare the carded wool : shape the wool to the desired size and thickness.
4. Prepare the sandwich : place the carded wool between two sheets of stabilizer paper.
5. Place the sandwich in the frame : secure the wool and stabilizer layers tightly inside the embroidery frame.
6. Set up the machine : load the digital stitch file and choose the appropriate thread and settings.
7. Start embroidering : the machine stitches directly through the stabilizer and carded wool, creating the pattern.
8. Remove the piece : take the embroidered wool out of the frame.
9. Remove the stabilizer : deep the work into water, and then dry it.
