Is it an even-woven fabric suitable for cross stitch embroidery? Thanks.

I don't cross-stitch and to answer your question, the muslin fabric is evenly woven and is a good quality fabric.

This is woven fabric not a sheet of plastic. There is probably some risk of liquid chemicals soaking through and staining clothing.

The difference between sewing and embroidery machine that sewing thread is more stronger and thicker. On the other hand, embroidery is very thin and thin. It is not a good idea to sew a project with embroidery thread, more likely the project will tear apart very soon. I will recommend to check polyester sewing thread. It will be good for any fabric and very strong.

This is a serger, so it has different special stitches for edge work... it won't have straight or zigzag stitch. There are tons of sewing machines that have up to 300 different types of stitches that sounds more what you might be looking for when you say you want an all purpose machine

Well, yes, and no. I found these towels great for embroidery! They washed well, no ironing needed!! They took transfer well, and were so long, that I was able to cut a couple in half to use. I thoroughly enjoyed embroidering these, and it seemed to go fast! But these towels aren't vintage in any way, and are a nice crisp white. You could have a lot of fun altering these to look more vintage, so,....enjoy !!!

Yes - they are very fine and evenly woven. Nice feel to the material. However, they shrink a little when washed.

I have had very good success, especially in machine applique in quilting. Not sure about apparel unless you are applique work. Don't use it for seams. It's for decorative purposes.

Any heavier fabric would be fine. I wouldn't use it on knits or silks that could snag or run. The bristles are really very soft.

The weight or "tex" of this thread is 30. It is strong enough for everyday sewing, but it is best suited for lighter fabrics.

Yes this thread has a beautiful end result in most all embroidery machines.....Keep in mind to purchase a needle for your machine that has a larger Needle eye then most ...the reason for this is to keep the thread from fraying as you are using it.....some decorative threads tend to be softer and more fragile so as they pull with the tension of the machine they can break off eaisier....ask your favorite Fabric shop for the larger eyed needles....they are actually just as sharp they just have a more elongated eye for the thread......Best of luck with your sewing adventures.

Are you making a garment out of the suede and then doing the embroidery? The fabric is soft and has a nap. If you can email me at keelysgrma@q.com and give me your address I can mail you a sample of the fabric so you can try the bead work on it before you buy the fabric. I am not home right now and will be home Mon eve. I can do it at that time. Karen O'Keefe

Not for hand embroidery. Machine embroidery may be okay for small jobs, not enough thread for larger jobs.

Yes, there is stitching through all layers. It's not straight lines forming channels, but is more like a quilt where there's a small stitched patch ever foot or so.The other side has the same pattern as the long rectangular pillows and the square pillows with tassles. It's also in the center of the rolled pillow and the lower half of the pillow with the row of dangling beads.This set is absolutely gorgeous. The photos don't do it justice.

I use if for machine applique. I would think and apron would be ok but uncomfortable for use as the entire apron. It is thick like an oil cloth.

This is not an iron on. Simply place it in the hoop along with your fabric to be embroidered. Works very well for most fabrics. Use an iron stabilizer with tshirt knits

Yes. It seems pretty heavy duty so far so good. Very bold stripes and the stitching seems very durable.

anything of good quality. using substandard threads in your machine can goof up the inner workings of where the thread runs through your machine. also when you do some reading about doing machine embroidery, different threads can be used for different applications.
