Description
How To Embroider A Cap With This Hoop Cut a piece of adhesive stabilizer
slightly larger than the cap hoop frame and pull the backing off. Stick the
stabilizer to the bottom frame of the cap hoop. Try wrapping the stabilizer
around the edges of the cap hoop, if it doesn’t stick tightly enough. Using a
water-soluble pen, mark the center of the design on the cap. Loosen the back
strap on the cap. Unscrew the thumbscrew on the hoop clamp to and slide the
cap bill under the clamp. Using the markings you made on the cap and the
template grid, arrange the cap so that the center of the design aligns with
the center of the hoop. Before you tighten the clamp, make sure the sweatband
and backing are pulled away from the embroidery area so that you don’t stitch
it to the cap. You may have to tape or pin the sweatband to keep it out of the
way. The buckram (stiff backing) under the sweatband also has to be pulled
back. If necessary to pull it back neatly, cut the buckram an inch or two
where it is stitched to the cap bill on each side. Tighten the clamp with the
thumbscrew. Starting in the middle and working out to the edges, press the cap
down firmly against the adhesive stabilizer. The cap must be as flat and
smooth as possible. Clamp the cap hoop to the regular 4×4 inch hoop on the
side opposite where it attaches to the embroidery unit. Turn the SE400 on and
set it up for embroidery as usual. Turn the embroidery unit on and attach the
regular 4×4 inch hoop with the cap hoop attached. You may have to remove the
foot and/or shank to do this. Use the curser keys to center the needle and
begin to embroider your design onto the cap. Remember, the design must be
rotated clockwise a quarter turn because the cap is hooped sideways and you
want the design vertical.
