Add Three-Dimensional Texture


One of the most desirable aspects of embroidery is its tactile appeal. When you look at an embroidered design, it is almost impossible not to run your fingers across it and appreciate the textural qualities imparted by the thread. To increase this effect we add layers of underlay to emphasize these qualitites. Puffy foam is also used to create a similar appeal.
What is often overlooked is the incredibly quick and easy 3-D looks you can achieve with the addition of cording or soutache to your designs.
When cording is used to create emphasis or a focal point to a standard embroidered design, the result is spectacular. The low stitch count necessary to tack down the cording barely adds to the overall stitch count of the design, but the look and texture that you add is immeasurable. I would suggest that every embroiderer consider this very versatile addition to their embroidery tool arsenal. Cording is not just for fashion anymore.

Sensational Sequins


When you think about sequins, you might think about runway fashions, costumes, or Vegas showgirls, but modern uses for this time tested embellishment techique have spread in all directions.
What sequins do is, get attention! We now use sequins on caps, T-shirts, sweats and just about anywhere you want to make an impact.
Using sequins in addition to standard embroidery allows you to make the design really stand out from the garment, and isn't that what we are really trying to do with our embroidered designs.
The great thing about sequins is that they can make any design a real standout without adding a lot of stitching and therefore gives you a lot of bang for your buck. If you are thinking about buying your first embroidery machine or adding another head make sure the machine you buy has a sequin attachment, you may not need it today but you will tomorrow. See the sequin attachment above at http://www.ricoma.us/machine1.cfm
