For those of you who have had equipment for a while please be patient with me. I have had my machine for a week and have not been to the offical Amaya training. I have a job that requires 24 shirts and 6 hats. I managed to struggle my way through the shirts and get them done. Now, I have to embroider the same logo on the hat. I can't seem to get the hat hooped right. I watched the new video that is on the front of this website and found it to be great. However, I am still having trouble. I have reduced the size of the logo down to 2.25". I am using a hat from sanmar #C866. It is structed hat with 8 panels and low profile. I have only been able to get one hooped that would stay win I traced the design. The only way I could get it to stay was put the sewn part of the bill up over the teeth and pull the strap across which casued about an 1/8" between the band and the bill. It also caused the hat to pucker which inteferred with the embroidery of the logo. Does anyone have any suggestions???
