I really enjoy machine embroidery, it gives me a chance to make perfectly finished designs with a highly sophisticated machine. But you don’t need a machine embroidery machine to embroider. You can embroider with a manual or computerized sewing machine. This technique is called free motion machine embroidery.
In the above clip, Christopher Nejman demonstrates free motion machine embroidery. What I find appealing about free motion embroidery, is the persons ability to switch up while creating a design. You can’t do that with your embroidery machine since it’s embroidering the design from a preprogrammed image. While sewing my capsule wardrobe, I’ll be sure to embroider machine, free motion and some hand embroidery to some of my designs.
