Join the Curtsy Embroidery Tester Team

Love machine embroidery? Want to build your design library?

Join the Curtsy Embroidery tester team! I’m looking for beginners and experienced embroiderers who enjoy stitching new designs and sharing honest feedback. Different machines, hoop sizes, and experience levels help me improve stitch quality and make instructions clearer.

For each project you accept, you’ll receive the design free in exchange for a completed test stitch, clear photos, and feedback by an agreed deadline. You’ll supply your own fabric, thread, stabilizer, and other materials.

Own an embroidery business? Testing is a great way to grow your design library while creating samples for your shop. You may sell finished items made with the designs under my normal terms of use and use your own test-stitch photos in your product listings once the design has been released. The digital design files may not be shared or resold.

New to embroidery? You’re welcome here! Your feedback helps me make designs beginner friendly and identify where instructions could be clearer. No previous testing experience is needed.

You can choose which testing opportunities to accept. Please report any stitching issues or confusing instructions—your feedback is the whole point!

Interested? Complete the application below. I’ll contact you by email when a suitable opportunity is available.

Tell me about your embroidery experience

About how long have you been embroidering? Tell me about the projects you enjoy and any experience testing designs. There’s no wrong answer—beginners are welcome! I value newer embroiderers’ feedback because it helps me make sure my designs are beginner friendly and spot where instructions could be clearer. No previous testing experience is needed.

Can you provide clear photos and honest feedback by an agreed deadline?

Yes
It depends on the project and deadline

You can choose which projects to accept. Once you commit, please meet the agreed deadline or let me know promptly if something comes up.

Tester Photo Permission

I give Curtsy Embroidery permission to use the project photos I submit as a tester in product listings, on its website, and in emails and social media.”
