This week for Sip & Stitch we are diving into the world of embroidered logos on polo shirts. If you are a small business with a free arm or multi needle machine, this may be one of the most requested items that you will get. This can also be one of the hardest items to get placement just right. That is where Mighty Hoops and the Hoopmaster Hooping stationcome in to make your life so much easier. I have been looking at the system for years and finally took the plunge and got it after seeing it in person at the Impressions Expo in Long Beach California this past January. It couldn’t have come at a better time either because I just got an order for 13 golf shirts with both a logo on the left chest and a name on the right chest.
Mighty hoops are only made for free arm or multi needle machines, so this tutorial will be more for our friends with bigger machines. However we will still be going over placement of logos that may be helpful for flatbed machines. Also Hoopmaster does have a hooping system specific for flatbed machines. I haven’t tried it out myself, but I might get it in the future so that I can use it for tutorials.
I will be using my Ricoma EM1010 10 needle embroidery machine for this project, but Mighty Hoops does make hoops for any brand machine including Brother and Baby Lock.
