That tension is inconsistent.

Well, that embroidery went pretty well…flips embroidery over NOOOO!! :scream:

I can’t get the tension right on this embroidery machine. Even if I make it a little bit higher! You see, the higher the tension is, the less likely the coloured thread will show through at the bottom. But my tension was on at 6, and it still kept threading! This is why embroidery is my least favourite bit of plush making. Any ideas on why this is happening?

BTW, I got rid of the cheeks in the end. It’s the eyes that matter.

Thanks!! To make my embroideries, I use a software called Inkscape/Inkstitch. It’s the only one that works on a Mac, as far as I’m aware.

Installing it isn’t as easy as you think. But there are tutorials on YouTube you might wanna try out.
