By dividing the amount of thread by the seam length, we get the ratio of thread consumed. If we multiply this factor times the total length of seam, we can determine the total thread consumed for that seam. Kalid Llisto Supporter. How long does it take to do a cross stitch?

The higher the count between inches, the smaller the stitch. To see a visual representation, take out a ruler and compare a one-inch section against your fabric and count how many stitches you can make within that inch. A Class 15,size A pre wound bobbins are slightly taller than a Size L pre wound bobbin and hold more thead than the Size L pre wounds. Pre wound bobbins very in price and this is due to the weight of the thread and the amount of thread wound on them. So check when purchasing pre wounds to see how much thread they have on them.

Most other bobbin thread is heavier weight such as a 60 weight or 70 or 75 weight. So if you wind a bobbin with a 90 weight bobbin thread you should get more thread on the bobbin than you would winding a 60 weight thread on it. The amount of both top thread and bobbin thread used in a design depends on the number of stitches in the design and also the typ of stitches. A design with lots of satin stitches will use more thread than one that has fill stitches.

If you wind a bobbin with 40 weight embroidery thread you will have less thread on your bobbin as the 40 weight is a heavier thread. I like Joyce's oigelcox idea to use the machine to tell you how many stitches you have in your bobbin.

I wind bobbins sometimes on my manual machine sometimes for my embroidery machine and I get about the same amount of stitches. Hugs Joyce. You know, I've never even looked at the stitch count when refilling my bobbins. What a dope I am. My machine has a stitch counter, so I filled a bobbin chose a large design and sewed it out. When I ran out of bobbin thread I had sewed approximately 30, stitches.

Now I have an idea where to change out bobbins on really large designs. I have 4 brother machines and there are 2 different bobbin fills for the bro machines you need to make sure you use the right one for your machine. This prevents damage to the embroidered fabric.

The main reason for hard embroidery is connected to the choice of backing. Further causes can be a too-high stitch density or too strong a thread. Use the softest backing possible and adjust the punching programme to the thread weight.

Ideally, the stitch density should be corrected. There are many reasons for puckering. In each case, you should first check the embroidery programme and correct a possible wrongly chosen embroidery sequence or reduce the number of stitches. Additionally, a thread tension set too high can be a cause for puckering and should be corrected. The embroidered material should be framed correctly.

It is recommended to stick the fabric and the backing together. To do this, iron-on and adhesive backings or adhesive sprays can be used. The choice of the right backing is crucial. In addition, you should always choose the smallest needle possible. To do this, you will have to reframe or punch again. To correct this, you should either adjust the thread to the punching programme, or punch again to use the present thread.

Check the punching programme. When embroidering writing, contour underlays are recommended. For surfaces, please underlay a grid. Furthermore, the smallest needle possible should be chosen and the thread tensions should be corrected if necessary. With pile fabrics or terry cloth, it can happen that stitches sink into the material. You should improve the framing method to avoid puckering while embroidering. In addition, you should use different backings to find the ideal backing for your embroidery.
