    I have been so fearful of using minky fabric because I was told it was a nightmare to stitch on because it constantly moves on you. After watching this video I think I have the confidence to give it a try. I am loving the lamb design and will give it a try. I do have one question is the diagonal lines necessary? I guess probably so if I am going to adhere the back to the back fabric to the front.

    +Girlfriends Gift Shop Pam Thanks for asking -- I'm so glad you're feeling inspired by the video. Because Minky fabric is so stretchy, we really recommend stitching the diagonal lines to keep it from loosening during use and while laundering. Enjoy!

    lovely video and good instructions. I was given a minky blanket already sewn with minky on the top and a stretch type jersey on the back. I need to embroider it wtih a name on top of the minky but need to make sure the jersey on the back does not stretch and is soft to the baby's skin. What is your suggestion. I prefer not to take it apart but to sew right on the finished blanket.

    Hi LindaLu, thanks for asking! I would tightly hoop a bottom layer of mesh cutaway stabilizer (like Floriani No Show or Sulky Soft and Sheer) with a topping of water-soluble stabilizer. Use temporary spray adhesive to adhere the three layers together. Make sure not to stretch the jersey or minky fabric while hooping, as this will affect the design's stitchout.

    Thank you for getting back to me. So this is the embroidery software that you use to print everything out. Do I put every embroidery design I own on this software. So could this be used as a regular embroidery software program thanks. Also is this a one time download and it is mine for ever or do I have to buy it after a wile. And etc thanks..
