3D Foam

A material used between the stitches and the fabric, which gives a three dimensional effect to the embroidery. Often called Puffy Foam, this term is actually a trademarked name for 3D foam.

For best results, use a design that has been specifically digitized for foam and use it on a fabric that will not require frequent laundering. Foam will melt with heat and dissolve with dry cleaning solvents.

Embroidery Tip

  • Test sewing not only verifies the design, it can determine if your machine tensions set properly, thread colors work with the design and the fabric, the stabilizers are appropriate, the needle is the correct one for the thread and fabric, and that the correct design transferred properly to the machine.
