APPLIQUE

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Applying

 

decorative

shapes

of

fabric scraps to household articles

and clothing

is

a very

interesting way

of

trimming

an

otherwise plain article.

First, trace

the

 

 

 

design

on

fabric

to be

appliqued,

then

pin

or baste

it securely

in place on

garment.

 

With

 

a small straight

stitch

or

narrow

zigzag,

sew around the

transferred

design.

After excess fabric

is

trimmed away, sew around the

applique

 

with a satin

stitch.

For a smooth

curve, stop frequently

at

the inside

edge of

the

curve to

pivot the

fabric slightly. Corners look much

better when

the

point

 

is

stitched

 

by pivoting rather than

just turned.

 

 

 

As

with

all

decorative

stitches,

paper

may

be

used

to

give

more

body

to

the

fabric

when stitching

and

can

be

torn

away

when

the

applique

is

completed.
