A lot of our subscribers have been asking for episodes demonstrating the capabilities of the EM-1010 and unlike what most people think, our smallest machine can handle more than these thick car mats. And to show you how, we used the optional table attachment for the EM-1010 and our Mighty Hoops.
Car mats are a popular niche, especially for car dealerships and body shops that want to offer customization service to their clients. These are potential partners that you, as an embroiderer, can look for. You can download the embroidery design that we used in this video to start practicing your car mat embroidery skills.
For this project you’ll want to use:
40 weight thread
80/12 needles recommended for thicker mats with rubber backing
A Mighty Hoop
Spring clamps
Water-soluble stabilizer as your topping
Let’s talk profit.
We found these mats at Walmart for as low as $13, but you can find cheaper options if you buy them wholesale.
Comparing custom car mat priced on Etsy, you can sell these for around $75 depending on the design. This leaves you with a hefty profit of about $62.
Spring clamps
What makes these car mats hard to embroider is the rubber on the back. This rubber is dense and may cause issues like needle breaks and give embroiderers a really hard time hooping car mats with their standard hoops.
Depending on how thick your car mats are, we suggest you move up to a thicker needle and lower your speed to 800 spm. As far as hooping goes, we suggest using magnetic hoops that allow you to hoop thick items. By placing the bottom part of the hoop under the mat and placing the top part right over the mat, the strong magnets will clamp together creating secure stabilization.
We are using the extended table to help hold up the weight of these larger, heavier items. This helps the stabilization and prevents loss of registration. We also suggest lowering your tension slightly to avoid thread breaks and using spring clamps for extra support clamping your mat and hoop.
Once you have your car mat secured on your machine, place your water-soluble stabilizer right on top of where the design will be. This topping will keep our stitches from sinking into the fabric, making the embroidery more detailed.
After that, you’re ready to start embroidering. To clean up your finished product, all you have to do is remove the topping by just ripping it off or by washing it away with a little bit of water.
By following these tips, the EM-1010 should handle a car mat like this one with no problem. Keep in mind that we demonstrated this on an EM-1010, and if our semi-commercial machine can do it, our commercial single heads such as the MT-1501 and the TC15-1 can definitely complete these items too. - Навчання та стиль

Just wanted to say thank you for the tips! I wasn’t getting a good grip with my mighty hoops for the car mats, but tried the clamps and it was a game changer!! 💗 worked like a charm!
Glad to help! Make sure to like and subscribe!
Soooo tempted to do this now.
Do it and post pictures and tag us!
I tried it!! It works!! 😱
Yay!
that's really cool
Thanks for the feedback!
Ricoma Embroidery Machines welcome I would love the machine to do my logo see how it turns out
Howdy doo Willie! Well, I just finished my first 2 attempts at car mats following your instructions. The first thing I had to do was remove the extended table... the hoop with the mat would not fit under the needle bar with the table in place. The other issue I seem to be having is not being able to keep the mat from sagging in the middle causing it not to lay flat when finished. Any further suggestions?? I really want to master this!!! LOL
Thanks so much for watching!
i want the extension table for the EM-1010 is it on the website - i couldn't find it :) great job Willy!!

Hi! Yes, it can work! You might have to switch the needle depending on how thick the fabric is
Can you show us the back side of the mats when your done? I'm curious to see what it looks like.
Thanks for the suggestion, next time we'll make sure to show the backside as well.

Can you recommend a shop that has the equipment to do this kind of embroidery on car carpet floor mats? I have a set of mats that I’d like custom embroidered (also have the embroidery files) but I can’t find a shop that can do this. Please post some recommended shops that are have the equipment to do this and will custom embroider mats that I ship to them.
HI there, thanks so much for watching. Please submit your request through Garmeo here < garmeo.com
How much room do you leave to make sure the needle does'nt hit the hoop, thanks
You want to make sure to trace first. So bring the needle down all the way while tracking and as long as it doesn't hit the hoop while tracing, then you are good to go!
@@ricomatv Thank you, very helpfull

So based on your introduction, is it safe to assume a brother se625 can't handle a car mat?
Yeah probably not
