Note: You may need to open up part of the inner
sleeve seam to allow enough room to get the sleeve
on the machine to stitch the motif.
6. Embellish around and on top of the motifs using the
hot-fix applicator wand and hot-fix crystals or hand
sew on the beads.
Instructions:
1. From the printed cotton fabric, cut around
several motifs.
2. Position the motifs on the front, back and
sleeve of the denim jacket. Rotate and
move the motifs around until you are
satisfied with their placement.
3. Lightly spray the wrong side of the motifs
with temporary spray adhesive and return
them to the desired location, pin in place.
4. Thread the machine with all-purpose
thread and select a straight stitch or zigzag
stitch.
5. Stitch around each motif to appliqué it
to the denim jacket. A straight stitch will
create raw edge applique and a more
casual look.
