Why Machine Embroidery is Better than Hand Stitched Embroidery
                     Why Machine Embroidery is Better than Hand Stitched Embroidery? 
Embroidery is an art of sewing or handicraft with colourful threads on fabrics. 
All age group get attracted to colourful arts and same way to the colourful 
embroidery designs or patterns. From ancient era we have known that these 
designs are made with hand stitches. But in current generation automation has 
taken its part in every industry even in embroidery. So, which one is cool? Let 
us discuss here. 
 
Hand Stitched Embroidery: 
History says embroidery has been introduced from East China dated back from 
5th to 3rd B.C. Some sites even claims that hand embroidery dates to Cro-
Magnon days or 30000 BC. Recently in an archaeological finding, fossils of 
heavily hand-stitched and decorated clothing, boots and a hat were found. 
Only passionate artists or craft makers can do a perfect Hand Stitched 
Embroidery. The free hand thread embroidery has various techniques involved. 
Firstly, the fabric must be aligned in hoops, preferably wooden without any 
creases. This gives a clear finish, easy to handle the fabric while stitching. 
Before the automation era of embroidery, we could find from a vast history 
how well the artists had hand crafted embroidery. A lot of patience and 
practise only can give such awesome outcomes.  
2D & 3D art designs, letterings and other designs are also made by Hand 
Stitched Embroidery. Some of the drawbacks are time delay, difficulties in bulk 
production, and difficulties in handling needles for a long time, heavy practise 
and perfection for good finish.  
Machine Embroidery: 
Hand-guided Machine Embroidery: 
As name suggests, the machine does all the stitching works but with human 
support. It is possible to do embroidery with common sewing machine with a 
darning foot. But a lot of human intervention is required with perfectness. 
Here, they use hoops just like Hand Stitched Embroidery. But the hoops must 
be adjusted by hands in a particular direction in the same speed of the needle 
motion. Any mismatch will lead to wrong stitch, thread breakage and thread 
jumping. The main drawbacks are again heavy practise, limited stitching styles, 
time delay, improper filling, wobbling of stitches since the hoops are moved by 
hand. 
Machine Embroidery with Automation: 
Here, the machine does all the stitching works without a human support on its 
own when the stitching design is encoded and fed to the machine. How a 
machine identifies the design? So, here comes the part of digitizing. The 
digitizers convert the pattern or design into computer readable stitches 
through embroidery digitizing software. Any design in .jpg or .png format is 
simply enough to embroidery digitizing service.  
These files are checked for any improvements and then converted carefully to 
stitches. Based on the design and fabric on which the sew-out is made, the 
designers would adjust the density, push pull compensation, underlay, trims 
and locks, Outline requirement for the design, etc., for better quality finish and 
visibility. Based on the fabric and size of the design, thread size and the needle 
sizes are opted. When the file is fed to the machine it automatically recognises 
colour and starts to sew. Here, the along with hoop moves automatically with 
respect to the stitching speed. 
For machine embroidery, digitizers or the embroidery digitizing service 
providers play a main role. Machine embroidery saves a lot of time such that 
the embroidery sew-out gets completed in a few minutes. Therefore, bulk 
production with the exact same embroidery designs just like copies are 
possible in all pieces without any change. Machine embroidery can support 
number of stitching styles including 3D puff Embroidery.  
So, I conclude, Machine Embroidery with automation is the best in time saving 
with quality finish and bulk production. It can even stitch small texts less than 
3mm height, where the embroidery digitizing service in US provider pays more 
attention towards the quality and visibility. For any embroidery digitizing
