We will give you the lowdown on the different synthetic and eco-friendly fabrics, and a short list of apparel suppliers’ own unique terms to describe their garments’ particular performance attributes. Please read the embroidery glossary carefully.

Aetzing:

The process used to create schiffli laces. The base fabric is dissolved, leaving the threads that have been stitched together to form the lace.

Anti-Pilling:

A treatment applied to the garment to prevent pilling, or the formation of little balls of fabric due to wear.

Appliqué:

1) Decoration or trim cut from one piece of fabric and stitched to another to add dimension and texture. If appliqué occupies a significant amount of the design, the stitch count is lower.

2) In schiffli embroidery, an embroidered motif, hand cut or aetzed away from the base fabric.

Automatic Color Change:

The ability of a multi-needle commercial embroidery machine to follow a command to change to another specified needle with a different thread color.
