One of the biggest challenges for any embroidery company is framing up bags, especially when working with tougher materials such as leather or heavy PU. These products don’t sit easily in traditional frames, and forcing them into place can bring a number of unwanted problems.
So why risk it?
- Strain or injury to your hands and wrist
- Cracking or breaking your plastic frame
- Permanent damage to the bag itself
- Wasted time trying to get an acceptable result
Fortunately, there’s a simple and effective solution.

Other Helpful Tips for Bag Embroidery
To get the very best results when stitching bags, we strongly recommend making a few small changes to your set-up:
- Use an SD1 Tripoint needle – designed specifically for penetrating tougher materials
- Apply Fablube fabric lubricant to reduce friction

These simple additions, combined with the right hoop, can save you time, reduce waste and protect both your equipment and the finished product.
