CHANGING STITCH TYPE – APPLIQUE
PSW 2.00a has a new
Appliqué
stitch.
•
Running stitches
are first placed around the outline edge.
•
A
second
block of
outline running stitches
(for securing appliqué
fabric to background fabric).
•
Outline of running satin
stitches
(for stitching around the trimmed
edge of the appliqué).
Blocks in Complex Fill can be changed to Appliqué instantly! At times the
appliqué method may be a better stitch choice for a given design because it
reduces the overall design density (depending on fabric) and greatly reduces
stitching time. Design segments and/or entire designs can be appliquéd,
creating interest and artistic effects.
