Embroidering on straw hats is a quick and easy project, a welcome gift for a friend. At the end of summer these hats go on sale for a song, so I bought up 6 to put aside for my beach loving and cruise going friends. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

SUGGESTIONS: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Select a font that is open so rather than a satin stitch so as not to cut through the straw-like hat fiber. Personalize with a name, monogram, or a floral design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Stabilizer: I found a lightweight stabilizer like Stitch N’ Ditch was adequate. Hooped first then with the hat pinned or clipped to it in place with Wonder Clips it should hold. If it does not seem secure, several strips of double sided tape helps. Do whatever is necessary to keep the hat brim in place. Guy<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Hoop carefully with the bulk of the hat away from the body or the machine or to the front of the hoop. Support the hat as it is embroidering. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Set the machine speed on low. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Remove the stabilizer and gift your friend. Or embroider one for yourself. They are really fun and satisfying to make.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now is the time to get yourself to the stores to pick up these bargain hats. Happy shopping and stitching!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
