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 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.

Use two layers of adhesive water-soluble 
stabilizer material with their sticky sides 
together, and then hoop them in the 
embroidery frame.

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.

a

Sew the placement line for the appliqué 
position “APPLIQUE POSITION”.

b

Lightly apply glue or spray adhesive, and 
paste the appliqué piece so that it aligns with 
the placement line.

Note

●

Before pasting the appliqué piece down, 
make sure the appliqué piece is positioned 
correctly within the placement line.

c

Sew the outline “APPLIQUE”.
