Using a frame pattern to create
appliqués (2)
There is another way of embroidering appliqués.
With this method, there is no need to change the
fabric in the embroidery frame. The appliqué can
be created by embroidering two frame patterns of
the same size and shape—one with straight
stitches and the other with satin stitches.
a
Select a frame pattern with straight stitches
to embroider onto the base fabric.
b
Place the appliqué fabric over the straight
stitch embroidery in step
a
. Make sure that
the area surrounded by the stitching is not
larger than the area of the appliqué fabric.
c
Embroider a second time over the appliqué
fabric using the same frame pattern in a
straight stitch.
• Be sure to stop the machine before the cross at the
center is embroidered.
d
Remove the embroidery frame from the
machine, and then cut off the excess
appliqué fabric along the outside of the
stitching.
e
Select the satin-stitched frame pattern with
the same shape.
f
Attach the embroidery frame removed in
step
d
, and then finish embroidering the
appliqué.
Note
• Leave the fabric in the embroidery frame
when cutting off the excess appliqué fabric.
In addition, do not apply extreme pressure
to the framed fabric, otherwise the fabric
could become loose.
Note
• If the size or position of the straight-stitched
frame pattern is changed, be sure to
change the size or position of the satin-
stitched frame pattern in the same way.
