After the pattern is embroidered, thread the
machine with the thread for the cutt ing
line, and then sew the cutting line
(APPLIQUE MATERIAL).
aCutting line for appliqué
j
Remove the appliqué material from the
embroidery frame, and then carefully cut
along the stitching. After cutting, carefully
remove all of the cutting line thread.
k
Use two layers of adhesive water-soluble
stabilizer material with their st icky sides
together, and then hoop them in the
embroidery frame.
l
Thread the machine with the thread for the
outline from step
n
, and then sew the
placement line for the appliqué position
(APPLIQUE POSITION).
aPattern placement line
m
Lightly apply glue or spray adhesive, and
paste the appliqué piece so that it aligns
with the placement line.
Memo
• We recommend using thread for the cutting
line that is closest to the color of the fabric.
Note
• Depending on the pattern density and fabric
used, there may be shrinking of the pattern
or the appliqué may be misaligned with the
placement line. We recommend cutting
slightly outside of the cutting line.
• When using patterns that are vertically and
horizontally symmetrical, use a chalk pencil
to indicate the pattern orientation before cut-
ting it out.
• Carefully cut out the pattern on the outline
you just sewed. Do not cut inside the cutting
line, otherwise the appliqué fabric will not be
caught by the appliqué stitch.
Note
• If water-soluble stabilizer is used, it is not
necessary to remove the stabilizer material
after sewing the appliqué outline. To reduce
shrinkage of the pattern, we recommend
using water-soluble stabilizer.
• Put together two layers of water-soluble sta-
bilizer, otherwise the stabilizer material may
tear during embroidering.
Note
• Before pasting the appliqué piece down,
make sure the appliqué piece is positioned
correctly within the placement line.
