- If the length of the fabric cuff is
smaller so that only one design can
be used, mark the lengthwise and
crosswise center of the fabric strip. - If the length of the fabric cuff can
accommodate two designs, as in
the featured sample, first determine
the design placement by marking
the lengthwise and crosswise center
of the fabric strip with a water-
soluble pen. Next, mark the seam al-
lowances on each short side, in this
case, ½ ". Finally, mark the halfway
point between the centerline and
each seam allowance (B). Remove
the original centerline, as it will not
be used in design placement. - Hoop the cut-away stabilizer and
fabric, centering one centermark
in the hoop. Rotate the design if
needed, and stitch. - Remove the excess stabilizer and
repeat to stitch a design on the
second centermark. Repeat for the
second cuff.

Seam allowances are ½ " unless otherwise
noted.
- If using interfacing, fuse it to each
cuff wrong side following the
manufacturer’s instructions. - With right sides together, stitch the
cuff short ends together. Repeat for
the lining pieces. - With right sides together, place an
embroidered cuff to a lining piece,
matching the seams and raw edges.
Stitch the lower cuff edge only. - Turn the cuff right side out and
press. Apply the trim(s) to the
bottom edge of the cuff.- With right sides together, stitch the
cuff to the jeans lower edge. - Press and add trims along the upper
cuff edge and/or to the jeans. - Repeat to attach the remaining cuff
to the remaining jeans leg.
