Fuse or stick a piece of stabilizer to the back
of the felt or denim fabric to be used as the
appliqué piece.
k
Hoop the appliqué fabric in the embroidery
frame, attach the embroidery frame to the
machine, and then start embroidering.
l
After the pattern is embroidered, thread the
machine with the thread for the cutting line,
and then sew the cutting line (APPLIQUE
MATERIAL).
a Cutting line for appliqué
m
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.
n
Use two layers of adhesive water-soluble
stabilizer material with their sticky sides
together, and then hoop them in the
embroidery frame.
Note
• An appliqué piece cannot be created if the pattern is
too large or too complicated or a combined pattern
is separated. Even if the selected pattern fits within
the embroidering area, the entire appliqué pattern
may exceed the embroidering area when the outline
is added. If an error message appears, select a
different pattern or edit it.
Note
• For best results, be sure to use stabilizer material for
embroidering.
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 pen to indicate
the pattern orientation before cutting 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 stabilizer,
otherwise the stabilizer material may tear during
embroidering.
