Native sizes and real measurements

Machine time
Multi-needle machine: about 1 min
A range, not a promise: stitches ÷ effective speed, plus one pause per colour change. Adjust it to your machine.
Adjust speed and pauses
Multi-needle machine: Effective speed (spm) 700–950 · Pause per colour change (s) 3
Hooping, stabilizer and threading are not included (typically 5–15 min). Nominal speeds from manufacturer specifications (e.g. Janome MC500E 400–860 spm). Effective speed is lower.
Before you start & guidance for your fabric
- Load the file for this size and check the machine reads the right format.
- Choose a hoop the design fits in with margin; do not scale the design to force it.
- Prepare the threads in the order below; some colours come back later in the sequence.
- Hoop fabric and stabilizer together, flat and without stretching.
- Use a fresh embroidery needle; stitch a test on a scrap of the same fabric if in doubt.
Guidance for your fabric
The heavier the fabric and the denser the design, the heavier the stabilizer. Cut-away is the safer choice for knits and high stitch counts; tear-away suits stable wovens.
Needle: an embroidery needle (75/11 or 90/14) with rayon or polyester embroidery thread; a metallic needle for metallic threads. Size depends on thread and fabric, not on the stitch count.
General guidance from stabilizer and needle manufacturers' guides (OESD, Sulky, Madeira, SCHMETZ). It does not replace a test on your own fabric. No tension values are given: they depend on your machine.

About this design
Karate Font Embroidery Design, with the whole character set for towels, robes, backpacks and baby clothes. Each letter is digitised separately so you can combine them freely.
Sizes and stitch counts
Check the specifications on this page for dimensions and stitch counts. Select a design or size, where available, to view its thread colours and stitching order.
Formats and machines
8 formats in a single file — PES, DST, JEF, EXP, HUS, VP3 and more: pick the one your machine reads and go.
Before you stitch
Stitch lettering last if you are combining it with a motif: that way any hooping shift shows up in the artwork, not in the name.
