There is a new design of a beautiful rose in DBC. What fabrics and stabilizers can hold up to so many stitches225,000+? I've never sewn that many stitches in one stitch-out and I'd like to try. I did a fox the other day of 30,000 and I think it had too much stabilizer because as the outline stitched, it was separated from the design on the left and right only.When I pressed it I could see where the fabric had been pulled.

Yep - mine say 22,391. Had to check Wow!

I think you will find it was a slip-up when the number was entered! An extra zero on the end. Embird tells me the design has 22610 stitches.

Ah. Thank you.

thank you

Cuties, please check to make sure your machine can handle that many stitches. It will be in your manual or it may be listed in the attached link.
Also, Embroidery Library have ideas on stabilizing and fabric since many of their designs are dense.
