Bath towel with Teddy Bear embroidery design

For our embroidery, we’ve chosen an ordinary bath towel which can be purchased in the nearest store. This towel was bought in everyday supermarket. 

When choosing a towel, you should take into account the following: it should have a large enough even-surface area for the embroidery. E.g., there shouldn’t be any other embroideries or decorations on it. Don’t forget the hooping allowance (or find a smaller design). The fabric shouldn’t be excessively dense.
For our embroidery we’ve chosen a Teddy Bear After the Shower design. It best suits our item. We’ll use 2 layers of a 80 g/m² tear-away stabilizer backing. It’s also necessary to place a water-soluble stabilizer (Avalon, etc.) on top. It will trample the pile, sparing us the trouble of dealing with a textured surface.
Choosing thread colors, don't forget that the fabric is white. Therefore lighter shades will be preferable. Hoop the smoothest area and tighten the screws as much as possible (the towel surface is uneven, some areas, especially in the corners, being harder to hoop than the others). We’ll embroider our towel on a multi-unit embroidery machine with the speed of 450–600 stitches per minute. This is an optimal speed as regards the quality and the noise. The item will be ready in just 40 minutes.
