Puckering.. 300g cotton & double stab
Hi everyone.
My testes are failing somehow... Puckering and distortion.
Test that I already did:
- Single layer stab hooped & floating technique
- Double Layer stab hooped & floating technique
- Double Layer stab + fabric hooped
Same results more or less, the 3rd being "the best" and the one shown in the pictures I uploaded 🤗
Issues:
- Distortion around letters
- Puckering around the design
I would like to have advice on the correct standard and workflow to make these designs and my future ones to stock puckering.
Here is my setup and materials
Machine: Bernina B500
Fabric: 300g cotton oversized t-shirt or sweatshirt
Thread: Madeira Polyester
Needle: Bernina 80/12 130/705 H SUK (Medium Ball Point).
Stabilizer: 2 layers of 80g/m² Madeira Cutaway superstable + temporary spray adhesive and applied iron heat to the fabric in order to stabilise the stabilizer
Hooping: double layer Stabilizer and fabric hooped, without forcing or stretching the fabric.
Digitizing: both designs have ~30k stichies, size ~25x8.5cm, with an underlay and starting from the center of the designs.
Thanks in advance.
