Number one on our list is, of course, the embroidery machine. Without your embroidery machine, you can forget about embroidery. It really is the most important piece to this puzzle. There are tons of machines on the market varying in all shapes in sizes, from single needles to multi-needle machines. Let’s briefly go over each of these machine types:
SINGLE NEEDLE EMBROIDERY MACHINE

MULTI NEEDLE EMBROIDERY MACHINE
While they can be slightly more challenging to master, multi-head machines are the “say all be all” when it comes to embroidery. Using a multi-needle machine unlocks unlimited potential for your embroidery. Although there is a learning curve when first starting on a multi-needle machine, it’s nothing you can’t handle, especially with all the great educational resources available online these days. These machines contain 4-16 needles, each of which sews its own thread color. This is a huge benefit as you’ll save tons of run time not having to switch colors manually.
Another huge benefit to a multi-needle embroidery machine is the hoop size. Commonly, multi-needle hoops start at 4×4 and go all the way up to jumbo-sized hoops (jacket backs, etc.). Most even have cap frames that allow you to embroider hats/caps. Not only are these machines more useful than a single needle for production, but they also create incredibly precise and detailed embroidery. Plus, they’re fast, which saves you time and allows you to output more embroidery.
