This is for bkd147, she was asking about a machine riser and embroidering on bags. My friend made this for me and I find it very hand for a lot of projects...

This might come in very handy when embroidering teeshirts, bags and so on, gets a lot of bulk out of the way. Thanks for showing.

Sorry, I don't understand.
How do you put the frame with the bag or T-shirt???

The embroidery hoop frame still goes on the machine the same way. The riser just allows the excess fabric to be under the machine out of the way. Not sure if I am explaining it right epic...Imagine the front of the T-shirt is on the hoop with the neck facing to your left the back of the tee is in the space in the rise under the embroidery section of your machine...
by epic 19 May 2008
Fantastic! Now I have understood, it's very useful I will try to build a same as yours.Thanks

What keeps the machine from vibrating off the riser?
by sqdancer 20 May 2008
No problem with vibration damaris, the weight of the machine holds it in place...

I do like this idea! I think it would elminate a TON of bulk and make sweatshirt embroidering much, MUCH easier!! I'm going to save this picture...maybe in my free time, I can make something similar! Your friend might have a little business in these.

Have my friend checking his workshop to see if he still has the pattern and measurements...if he can't find them I will have him draw me up something to share with any of you interested...

Wow! what a gem of an idea. I can see how useful it would be eliminating all the bulk when stitching out a Tee. I too will be printing out a copy in hope of having the design duplicated .. but not by DH, who unfortunately has two left hands when it comes to woodwork etc. Bless him! Thanks for sharing. Flower for you.

I'd also love to have the instructions, but I can't find how to PM you. My husband needs a project other than golf! This will come in soooo handy when embroidering for our soon-to-be 12 grandkids (2 in August, 9 boys, 3 girls). Many thanks in advance.

I guess I don't do enough embroidery to warrant having one, but I'll give Ray a yell to come look at it.
He built me a surround for my machine, to use when I wanted my machine as a flat sewer in the Horn sewing cabinet, but we think he scrapped it when I was going to sell the Horn. Now I've changed my mind so he has to make another one. :-)
Every time I ask for something else he just says "add it to the list" LOL!!!
Thanks for sharing hugs, Meganne

this is a really old post but it works kind of like a free arm sewing machine. If you want to hoop a jacket,skirt or something of that sort. Notice the space underneath.
here is what it says on one for sale on ebay
MACHINE RISERS MAKE A VERY USEFUL TOOL WHEN WORKING ON SLACKS, T-SHIRTS, PURSES AND SHIRTS. PREVENTS YOU FROM SEWING THE FRONT & BACK TOGETHER
by mycarole 11 Feb 2014
Of course. What was I thinking? I haven't tried sleeves, or jackets yet. thank you for answering me. NB. Canada

Wow, this maybe an old post...so glad I stumbled across it! What a revolutionary idea!!!! Did not know something like this would work on an embroidery machine, let alone think of anything this unique. Thank you for re-sharing the idea for whatever reason.

I bought one of these a few years back, and love it. Mine was made to fit my Singer XL6000 and wish I had one for each machine. Others are too big to really fit on it right.
