In this livestream, we'll be creating an ITH pig – directly on the Brother Innov-is 880E. We'll show you how to turn felt, thread, and a clever embroidery design into a small 3D object, give you material tips, and answer your questions about machine embroidery live.

Some embroidery projects are more than just a design – they are a small experience.
Tonight at 8 pm we'll take you live into just such a project: We'll be embroidering an ITH pig – a special technique that creates multidimensional 3D elements directly in the embroidery frame .

The embroidery is done on the Brother Innov-is 880E , a dedicated embroidery machine known for quiet operation, clean details, and reliable results. In the livestream, we'll show you step-by-step how to create a real little 3D object from embroidery felt, thread, and a cleverly designed embroidery file.

These products will be used in today's livestream.

Du suchst die beste Qualität & Service?

Du suchst die beste Qualität, Freiarm und den besten Support? Dann bist du mit der Bernina B500 bei Make ma perfekt aufgehoben. Ich hatte vorab wirklich 1 Mio. Fragen, dass es mir schon fast peinlich war. Aber Marit hat alle Fragen vorab beantwortet. Ursprünglich wollte ich die Bernette B70 haben, aber die Vorteile vom Freiarm, die intuitive Bedienung machen die schöne Maschine für mich perfekt. Ich würde gerne mehr Sterne geben, weil ihr einfach sehr modern seid!! Davon können scih andere noch eine Scheibe abschneiden, so viel verstaubte Geschäfte da draußen.

Großartige Beratung vorab!

Ich bin total happy mit der Brother Celeste Stickmaschine. Besonders die Zwei-Punkt-Positionierung ist für mich ein echtes Highlight – damit lässt sich das Motiv viel genauer platzieren, was im Alltag einfach super hilfreich ist.

Vor dem Kauf wurde ich vom Team von Makema.de richtig gut beraten. Alle meine Fragen wurden geduldig beantwortet, sodass ich ein sehr gutes Gefühl hatte. Am Ende habe ich die Maschine sogar direkt vor Ort abgeholt, weil ich das Schätzchen unbedingt sofort mitnehmen wollte.

Seit inzwischen 6 Wochen ist sie bei mir im Einsatz und ich bin immer noch begeistert: Sie stickt leise, schnell und sehr sauber. Für mich bisher eine richtig gute Entscheidung.

Geniale Maschine

Die Brother F580 als kombinierte Näh- und Stickmaschine ist einfach genial. Sehr schnell umgebaut, einfach in der Bedienung und ein wirklich(!) sehr ruhiges Nähen. Super!

Total Glücklich mit der Maschine

Nachdem ich von der Singer SE auf die Bernina gewechselt bin, hatte ich erst ein paar Bedenken. Aber jetzt möchte ich die Bernina nicht mehr missen! Bin super zufrieden!
