Embroidery is the art or handicraft of decorating fabric or other materials with needle and thread or yarn. Embroidery may also incorporate other materials such as metal strips, pearls, beads, quills, and sequins. A characteristic of embroidery is that the basic techniques or stitches of the earliest work—chain stitch, buttonhole or blanket stitch, running stitch, satin stitch, cross stitch—remain the fundamental techniques of hand embroidery today. Machine embroidery, arising in the early stages of the Industrial Revolution, mimics hand embroidery, especially in the use of chain stitches, but the "satin stitch" and hemming stitches of machine work rely on the use of multiple threads and resemble hand work in their appearance, not their construction.

I just got a Janome 300E embroidery machine, but I need thread so I can try it out! Any machine embroidery experts out there who can give me advice on the buying thread? I'd especially like advice on what kind works best, where I can get it the cheapest, should I buy it in sets or on a per-project basis... Thanks!

You can purchase ARC thread here - I have never used it. Most will be offered in Rayon, but Poly gives the same results and can handle bleach. Try Allstich and Allthreads for prices. Start with the basic colors and test the machine's built-in designs. When buying kits and collections you may end up with colors you will not use. You may find you will have to choose "close" when it comes to buying specific colors. When choosing designs to download from the Internet, they usually indicate the brand of thread used by the designer as will as a thread chart and possibly a color conversion chart. Embroidery Library is one company that provides this information. Answered by pattiann42 - Sun Feb 28 12:24:35 2010 How can I make embroidery floss friendship bracelets with fish in the pattern?
