Curious to learn more about something I mentioned in the video? Let us know, we could really use your help in figuring out what information you would find most valuable for our upcoming videos! Also, should we keep the bloops at the end of each video? 🤔
Love your sweatshirt! And ty for a wonderful video, very informative.
Thanks so much! We’re happy to help 😁
You have a “yoga teacher” tone to your voice. 👍🏾. This was a very informative video. I was today years old when I learned what the magic hoop is for 👏🏽👏🏽😂🙏.
Aww thanks! I did not realize that! So happy to you found this video helpful 😊
Love the way you explain in detail all the process of embroidery.
Thank you! It took me longer than I want to admit to make this video 🫣 so happy you liked it and found it valuable ❤️
Just found you today. is this the only embroidery video you have done? I really learned a lot from this one! I would love to see how you market your embroidery. Also, if you make on demand and how you manage your TAT. Any video you could make about how you do things, how you create them. Just anything! I love the bloopers at the end!
We are super new to making UA-cam videos and are so happy you enjoyed this one! We have a lot of ideas for videos and the full process of how we make our embroidery is coming soon! I’m glad we decided to keep the bloopers in 😂❤️
I’m so happy you will be doing more!
Thank you for this helpful video! I have been making raggy quilts for years and paying someone to make my labels. My daughters gifted me a Brother Artspira embroidery machine for Christmas and I was a bit overwhelmed. I feel like I understand what I need and how to get started, so thank you for the concise, informative tips!
Awww this comment makes us so happy and the exact reason we decided to start making UA-cam videos - sharing what we know to lend a helping hand! Best of luck with your embroidery journey!
You have a pleasant voice to listen too. Thanks I been embroidery for long time . But you taught me . 😊
Awww thank you for such a nice compliment! So happy to hear you found value in what we shared ❤️
Thank you very much…I am so new. Loved the video.
Thank you!! We’re so happy you found it helpful ❤️
Great tips! Thank you!!
Thank you so much! So happy you found value in the tips we shared! ❤️
I made the commitment to starting my embroidery business. I invested in the Baby Lock Array today and will be picking it up next week! I am so excited and nervous!
I wanted to ask you about your brand? Do you have to trademark the phrases you embroidered in your products?
Thank you. Your video was very helpful!
Whoaaaa!! Congrats! We know the exact feeling your going through 😃
You don’t have to trademark all of your designs when you are getting started, it’s more about avoiding using other people’s trademarks to avoid any legal troubles. When you are just getting started you can try downloading embroidery designs while you get familiar with your machine. It may take a bit of troubleshooting, but you got this! ❤️
❤❤
Very Nice Job!!
Thank you so much!! ❤️
Excelente video!!!
❤️🙌
Where did you get the larger hoop station with the top hoop holder you press don in? (Sorry not sure what to call it) I have the 5x5 Hooping station, but need a bigger one like yours. Great video!
We got it directly from hoopmaster.com! We also have a smaller Mighty Hoop but unfortunately you have to buy the “Mighty Hoop Fixture” (the thing you press down on) for each mighty hoop size. The one we use in the video is the 6.25” Mighty Hoop Fixture for our 6.25” x 8.25” mighty hoop. Hope that helps!
Loved the video. Very informative!!
Loved the bloopers 😅
Thank you so much! I wasn’t too sure about including the bloopers at first but glad you enjoyed them 🫣❤️
@@littlecomfygoods I love bloopers, it makes the person seem real and genuine and more relatable ☺️
Where can I find the thread burner that you are using?
You can find it in our Amazon link in the description under the embroidery section! Let us know if you have any issues finding it 😃
Good video, well presented. Maybe you could reconsider the background music. Quite distracting. Appreciate the information being concentrated in one place. I've found information kind of scattered here and there.
Thank you for the feedback! We’re still learning the best way to share what we know. Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts with us 😃
Also, where do buy the tags?
Thank you.
Which tags are you referring to? The branded inside label or the clothing tag that is attached at the end? We’ll be sharing a beginner embroidery guide soon, so these questions are super helpful for topics to cover in that video!
@@littlecomfygoods Well, now that you mentioned it, both:)
The inside label is a screen print heat transfer that we designed and ordered from transfer express and the clothing tag is actually a “business card” that we designed vertically and got printed from VistaPrint. Hope that helps! :)
I bought a bunch of Gildan shirt but they already have a tag. Would you recommend a good clothing supplier. I bought the t shirts from Amazon and they were very cheap and the fabric quality feels decent. I looked a bunch of online retailers but it's hard to see the quality of the fabric.
Thank you.
Can't wait to watch the embrodery beginners video!
Hello, what's the model of your embroidery machine and how much is it? Thank you. I'm new to your channel :)
Hi! Thanks for supporting our channel :)
We have the BabyLock Array, it’s a great 6-needle machine. It is also the biggest investment we’ve made for our small business! You can typically find one between $12k - $15k 😳
Where can I find the folding station?
You can’t find it in our Amazon link in the description, it will be under the “Embroidery Supplies” category. Hope that helps!
Do you have advice when the machine doesn’t catch the bobbin?
Yes! We are planning on making a video of pain points we experience with machine embroidery, and this is topic #1!! There are many reasons why this happens. Try troubleshooting the following:
1. Ensuring correct tension
2. Cleaning out the bobbin case between new bobbin thread
3. Make sure it’s sitting correctly in the hook
4. Unwind and discard at least 1 yard when inserting in new bobbin thread in case of imperfections to the thread
Hope this helps!
