⚠️ IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT FRINGE DESIGNS
1. DO NOT USE WATER-SOLUBLE BOBBIN THREAD
We do NOT recommend using water-soluble bobbin thread with our Fringe designs. The thread that holds the fringe in place will also dissolve when washed, causing the fringe to come apart.
2. DO NOT RESIZE FRINGE DESIGNS
Our Fringe designs are specially digitized for each size and should not be resized.
- Reducing the size: Makes the fringe sections narrower, making it difficult to cut the bobbin stitches to release the fringe.
- Enlarging the size: Fringe stitches are already close to the maximum stitch length embroidery machines can handle. Enlarging may cause stitches to disappear or fail to stitch.
When we offer different sizes, each is individually digitized with fewer or more fringe sections to ensure proper stitching and easy fringe release.
Resizing is NOT the same as properly digitizing a design for a different size.
We cannot guarantee the results of resized or altered designs.
* PLEASE NOTE - WE DO NOT PROVIDE ASSISTANCE WITH SOFTWARE OR EMBROIDERY MACHINE USAGE. There are too many variations of software and machines out there for us to know how to use them all.
However, we do host a Facebook Group, "A Stitch in Time Embroidery Designs VIP Group" that is a wonderful source of information from many other embroiderers just like yourself!
