I think you'll be okay. May want to practice first on one or two. Put down
some double zig zag underlay to help cover the foam underneath (I'm assuming
it's white) and lower the density setting on the underlay from 25 to about
12.5 . Density could be about a 3.5 and this is depending on what the
design looks like. I think these might be easier than most hats because of
the "cheesy" bill board rectangular front. Material thickness may have to
be increased a little to accommodate the spongy foam. Otherwise it will
pull on the thread too much. If there isn't much buckram backing behind the
foam, be sure to use one or two layers of tear away backing. Again,
practice on one or two.

Subject: [amayausers] cheap foamy veterans hats...
Hi all,
I am emailing from my wife's email, my email seems to
be down (I can receive email but can't send from my
account). So if you get this please post a response,
thanks.
I transported the amaya successfully. Thanks for the
help.
Now I have a customer who already has a few hundred
cheap foamy hats for a U.S. Veterans group. I think
this is like that cheap foamy hats you see at the
truck stops... I am meeting with customer in the
morning to see for sure. But I am curious assuming
that's the type of hat... has anyone embroidered on
these cheasy foamy hats? If so, I was worried too
much density may just tear through the stuff (if they
don't have any buckram etc.).
Based on the customers specific description, I am
almost certain these are those type of hats... if they
are, can the amaya sew these okay? I don't want to
take the job, only to find out we can't sew on this
type of foam...
thanks,
