I searched at Ann the Gran and there are several answer posts for you to look at.

I have just finished embroidering 2 pairs of satin pillowcases and used 75/11 ball point needle. This was a light design and I used a tear away (med). I didn't hoop the satin as I was afraid it might mark it. Good luck with your project. Hugs Karen

I don't have any tips, but just wanted to say that I knew you guys would be soooooo helpful to jencraft. Once again, thank you for being a community that shares and educates instead of hoarding and grumpy. :) It is so pleasant to live in this 'family'.

This wasnt even my question and I found it to be very helpful. Thank you all for being a part of such a supportive site, I appreciate each and every one of you

Hi Jen, just done a ring pillow for a friend's son. Used good quality satin fabric and 2 x tear away stabilizer. Pattern was quite dense (double corner snowflakes) and both names across in a beautiful curly font. Needle - 75/11 universal without any problems! Tested the pattern before I did the real thing - came out 100%

Hi Jen,Sorry only saw this now. I use a firm stablizer in the hoop, spray the stablizer and then place the Satin were you want to do your design.
Use a fine needle and ensure it is sharp/new. I have not had any problems.
Hugs Yvonne
