Use a Cut-away stabilizer, so that the spandex is prevented from pulling through the design. Smaller design's work better on these items, due to the loss of sterchiness.

I have been asked to embroider a track emblem and school name on the front of black spandex one piece track uniforms. This is our first "paid" job and I am nervous about sewing on spandex. Does anyone have some suggestions about how to sew on this? The emblem is a Dakota tennis shoe with wings and then the lettering. Any advice would be appreciated.
