Re: Logo crumbles after washes... help?
wow, you last two.. ltpemb and digidana hit quite a few of the learning points!! But being that there really is NO school for this everyone seems to have to reinvent the wheel!? I agree more with what I feel Digidana is saying in that it all starts in the digitizing. But that being said the operator ability, underlayment and machine, especially machine speed, are all just as important. Is a marriage.
not only does too much backing effect the lay.. think of your poor nipples! yikes! Cannot wear the shirt because it HURTS! and I am just coming from a man's perspective.
I think there is another issue here.. which deals with the marriage between digitizer/operator/machine..... how is it we can embroider on toilet paper but we cannot get a shirt to lay flat? that is the issue I think new people could totally have an issue with. Problem is they blame one of the three instead of trying to get all three to work together. For example.. how fast do you run your machine? I know that they can run well over 1000 spm... not for me.. I never go over 650 mainly because my EYES cannot notice a problem faster than that... but that is just me. YES, I slow my 3mm lettering areas down to 200 spm. I WANT the control.. I CONTROL the machine. It has only been 27 years but I do not have these issues because I CONTROL the environment. Marriage... digitizer/ operator/ machine.
