This embroidery design comes in two sizes - for a 5x7 hoop and a 6x10 or larger hoop. The large-scale design is perfect for holiday pillows, towels and more! Featuring Sulky Rayon Thread for detailing and Sulky Filaine Thread for the faux-fur effect, this Wooly Mammoth is a fun way to play with threads to create 3-D effects.

Note: This design is digitized for heavyweight, 12 wt. Filaine, thread, which requires special handling. Consult the included color chart to be sure to switch threads and needle size when required.

TIPS:

• When stitching Filaine portions of the design, slow the machine speed as low as it'll go.
• Use a size 100/16 Titanium Top Stitch or Top Stitch Needle.
• Use 60 wt. Bobbin Thread. 
  
• De-select auto-trims to avoid knots and bulk on the fabric wrong side; instead, use the handwheel at the start of the Filaine stitching and pull the bobbin thread up to the fabric surface. Then trim the thread tails after the first few stitches of the design portions. 
  
• Fabric choice is important - medium- to heavyweight fabrics work best with this dense design. If lighter weight fabric is used, add interfacing and more layers of stabilizer or a heavier weight stabilizer to ensure stitching success.
  
• Be sure to stabilize the fabric adequately to support the many needle penetrations. Cut-away stabilizer varieties are best to support the stitching over time.
