Rock a Bye Baby
tricks Don’t just swaddle the baby, protect your project too! Since
the start of Anita Goodesign, we have tried and tested all
methods to produce good, quality embroidery. Check out
our tips and tricks for completing projects successfully.
High Flying Fibers
Fabrics with high loft fibers will need a topper
added to the fabric. They come in “heat away,”
(disappears with ironing) and “wash away”
(disappears in water) versions, that hold down
fibers for crisp, clear, embroidery.
Cuddles & Snuggles
gles
Cubbies are adorable stuffed toys with an
opening and removable stuffing, making it
super easy to hoop the little guys and
embroider custom messages and
pictures on their bellies.

Hearts & Seams

baby clothes are so tiny and adorable, they
won’t won’
sit flat in a hoop! Keep in mind that you may
nee
need to open seams in order to embroider onto
the garment or blanket to hide the back of the
design. Once complete use your serger to
sew the project back together.
Dream Weavers
Babies have soft, delicate skin
that can be irritated easily. If
your project has a high stitch
count with a scratchy back,
try using an iron on backing,
like Dream Weave, to make
the design soft to the touch.
