Appliqué Sharp Curves 

Stop the machine with the needle in the fabric 
outside the appliqué. Raise the presser foot and turn 
the fabric a little bit at a time while sewing for an 
attractive finish to the seam.

Appliqué Corners

Stop the machine with the needle in the right 
position of the outside (or inside) corner of the 
appliqué. Raise the presser foot and pivot the fabric 
to align the fabric edge. Lower the presser foot and 
continue stitching.
