Puckering is usually caused by one of two things.
1. Poor (or no) underlay. Make sure you use the proper underlay for the size
letters you are using. What size letters and font name are you using. I'm sure
someone can recommend underlay to use for that font.
2. Poor hooping. Dont stretch the material. Hoop it and smooth out the excess.
Pretend you are embroidering a rubber band. If you stretch it before
embroidering it, what happens when you unhoop it? The rubber band falls back
into place but the embroidery will look horrible. Same thing happens with
clothing. It needs be hooped so there is no excess material in the hoop but
don't stretch it to much. (This will take some practice.)
