Creative_Machine_Embroidery_-_Winter_2019

• Embroider the first two steps of the
  design, then embroider the third
  step to stitch the first appliqué
  placement line.


• Remove the hoop from the ma-
  chine, but don’t remove the project
  from the hoop. Place the faux fur
  square over the placement line.
  Place another piece of topper over
  the fur and tape both in place.


• Place the hoop on the machine and
  embroider the tacking stitch.
  
  
  • Remove the hoop from the
    machine, but don’t remove the
    project from the hoop. Trim the
    faux fur fabric as close as possible
    to the stitching line. Place another
    piece of topper over the fur.
  
  
  • Re-place the hoop onto the
    machine and embroider the next
    two steps to zigzag the edge of the
    fur and stitch the second appliqué
    placement line.
  
  
  • Remove the hoop from the
    machine, but don’t remove the
  
  
  
  

project from the hoop. Place the

cotton fabric over the placement

line, being sure to cover the line

completely. Secure with tape at the

edges.

• Re-place the hoop onto the ma-
  chine and embroider the tacking
  stitch.


• Remove the hoop from the
  machine, but don’t remove the
  project from the hoop. Remove the
  tape and carefully trim the appliqué
  fabric as close to the stitching lines
  as possible.


• Re-place the hoop onto the ma-
  chine. Continue embroidering the
  design, pausing when two steps
  remain.


• Remove the hoop from the
  machine, but don’t remove the
  project from the hoop. Turn the
  hoop to the back and trim the
  floated cut-away stabilizer as close
  to the stitching as possible.


• Re-place the hoop onto the
  machine and embroider the next
  step to stitch the ornament outline.

Remove the hoop from the

machine, but don’t remove the

project from the hoop. Turn the

hoop to the back. Fold the ribbon

in half and place at the top of the

ornament with about ¾ " of the

ribbon ends inside the stitching

line. Secure with tape outside the

stitching.

Place the remaining felt square over

the hoop back, ensuring that all

stitching lines are covered. Secure

with tape at the edges.

Change the bobbin to match the

thread in the machine. Re-place

the hoop onto the machine and

embroider the final step to stitch

the final outline.
