Albanese Embroidery Studio

05/20/2026

Ok, all my fire & EMS people… do you like Propper apparel?? 👀

I have an opportunity to become a dealer for and I’m seriously considering it! But before I jump in, I want honest feedback from the people who actually wear the gear.

Is it comfortable?
Does it hold up well?
Worth the price?
What are your favorite items from them?

They do require a $500 opening order, so I’m trying to see if there’s enough interest before I pull the trigger. Jackets? Pants? Job shirts? Tactical gear? Let me know what you’d actually buy!

Drop your thoughts below — good, bad, or ugly. 🚑🔥👮

HOLY SMOKESSSS!!! 😍🔥
I DID IT!!! AND IT CAME OUT FLIPPING AWESOME!!!

FULL WRAP LASER TUMBLER: SUCCESSFUL ✅

No explosions.
No crooked wrap.
No “well that looked better in my head.”

Just pure chaos… and somehow it ACTUALLY WORKED. 🤣

The red shimmer with the Stitch engrave?!?! OBSESSED.

This thing looks SO GOOD in person I can’t stop staring at it.

Meanwhile the studio still looks like a tornado hit it, machines are running, and I’m over here acting like I just won a Grammy because a tumbler wrapped correctly. 😂☕🔥

Honestly kinda proud of this one!! What do you all think?! 👀

WELP... currently attempting a FULL WRAP with the laser while doing a test run on the embroidery machine, probably forgetting 12 other things at the same time 🤣🔥☕

At this point the studio sounds like a small manufacturing plant having a nervous breakdown. Embroidery machine humming, laser cooking, my anxiety at an all-time high, and me over here just winging it and hoping for the best 💀

So place your bets now… Will it come out amazing? Or will I invent new swear words tonight? 🤞😂

Maybe I should just call it quits for a while because HOLY HELL the embroidery gods have chosen violence this week. 🤦‍♀️
In the last 4 days: 🔥 7 hats absolutely sacrificed to the embroidery machine. 🔥 2 sweatshirts completely misaligned AFTER the damn test run stitched PERFECT. 🔥 About 10 things screwed up total. 🔥 My patience hanging on by a single frayed thread.
At this point I don’t even know what I’m doing wrong anymore. One minute everything is fine, next minute the machine decides to freestyle like it’s possessed by a crackhead raccoon with a sewing degree.
You ever get to that point where you just stand there staring at the machine wondering if you should unplug it… or launch it directly into the nearest field? Because that’s where I’m at. 😒
I swear this business is 10% creativity and 90% fighting equipment that wakes up every day and chooses chaos.
Maybe I just need to walk away for a bit before these hats become airborne. 🫠

Current status of the embroidery room:
✔️ Multiple hats sacrificed to the embroidery gods
✔️ Questioned every life choice I’ve ever made
✔️ Threatened the machine at least 47 times
✔️ Wasted enough stabilizer to build a small house
BUT LOOK AT THIS TEST STITCH… 😑
So you mean to tell me this damn machine can suddenly stitch PERFECTLY on flat fabric after spending all night absolutely curb stomping every hat I touched?!?!
Ohhhhhh ok. Cool cool cool. Love that for me. 🤡
At this point I’m convinced hats are just tiny fabric demons sent straight from hell to test my patience and blood pressure. The machine said:
“Flat test? Flawless 😇”
“Actual hat order? ABSOLUTELY NOT 💀”
The hats hate me.
The machine is gaslighting me.
And I’m one bad stitch away from launching a Richardson 112 into low Earth orbit. 🧢🚀

Well… after a couple days of accidental “vacation” from the chaos factory… the universe has decided I’ve relaxed enough. 🤣

A box is showing up today that officially ends my downtime. It was nice while it lasted! I actually managed to organize a little, clean some things up, and somewhat catch up on life. Weird experience honestly. Would not recommend getting used to it. 😅

But starting at 6pm tonight… we’re back to full feral studio mode. Machines running, orders flying, probably yelling at equipment, and surviving purely on caffeine and bad decisions.

LET THE CHAOS COMMENCE. ⚾🔥

Alright… I need to publicly apologize before Facebook gets me arrested for spam crimes 😅

Apparently Facebook has decided I now run a very aggressive messaging campaign that I DID NOT SIGN UP FOR. If you’ve clicked on one of my posts and suddenly got a message from me… congratulations, you’ve been personally victimized by Facebook automation 💀

Before anyone thinks I’ve lost my mind and started mass messaging like some kind of MLM boss babe… I PROMISE I DID NOT TURN THIS ON. I’ve dug through every setting, every “automation” tab, every hidden corner of Facebook… and everything is OFF.

OFF.
LIKE MY SANITY AFTER THIS WEEK.

So yeah… if you get a random message from me, just ignore it. It’s not me… it’s Facebook being chaotic and choosing violence.

If I do want to message you, don’t worry… I’ll make it obvious 😂
Thanks for putting up with this nonsense while I try to fight the Facebook overlords 🙃

Holy s**t 😅 they say “third time’s a charm”… yeah, no. Try fourth… maybe fifth… honestly I stopped counting somewhere between rage and pure stubbornness.

BUT GUESS WHAT — I GOT IT 😤👏
After questioning all my life choices, threatening the machine (lovingly… kinda), and redoing this thing more times than I care to admit… she finally came out CLEAN 🔥

Softball/baseball bow? ✔️
Sanity? questionable.
Worth it? absolutely.

Who knew a “simple little bow” would turn into a full-blown character development arc 💀

05/02/2026

A few more tweaks and I think I’ve got it!! 🙌

Who knew turning softballs/baseballs into a bow would send me down this rabbit hole 😂

Now the real problem…

I am about to go on a full blown feral scavenger hunt for neon yellow sparkly fabric 💀✨

What are the odds I actually find it locally… or am I about to be rage-ordering at 2am like the rest of my life decisions??

Stay tuned… this one might get ✨extra✨ real fast 😎

05/02/2026

OH THE THINGS I AGREE TO 😭

“Can you do a bow on the bottom of a sweatshirt?”

Me: uhhhh… that feels… doable? maybe?? 😬

“…but make it baseball AND softball.”

EXCUSE ME WHAT

So now we’re out here engineering athletic bows like I’m running a sports couture lab over here 💀
Here’s the test run!!!

If this works I’m a genius.

If it doesn’t… we pretend this never happened. 🤣🤞
