Quilt Appliqués
Appliqués add a special touch to your quilt. There are many different
ways to stitch appliqués to a quilt. One way is to add the appliqué to
the block before the quilt is put together.
• Set your sewing machine for a satin stitch. Choose stitch no. 10,
stitch length 0.4 - 0.5mm, stitch width 3 – 6mm, presser foot 2.
• Fuse the appliqué piece to the block with invisible web.
• Place stabilizer under the block and sew around the appliqué with
the satin stitch. Make sure the stitch is mostly sewn on the appliqué
– covering the raw edge of the appliqué.
Another way to add an appliqué to a quilt is to
fi
nish the edge of the
appliqué and sew it on with the hand appliqué stitches no. 83 or 84.
First prepare the appliqué:
• Cut the appliqué shape out of fabric and a piece of lightweight iron
on interfacing.
• Place the right side of the fabric and the rough (iron-on) side of the
interfacing together.
• Use a straight stitch (no. 1), stitch length 2.0mm, center needle
position and sew the fabric and interfacing together around the
outside edge with a 1/4” seam.
• Trim around the appliqué leaving 1/8” seam allowance and clip
into curves. Slash the interfacing, turn the appliqué right side out.
• Finger press the appliqué and place it on the quilt. When you are
satis
fi
ed with the position, iron it in place.
Select stitch no. 83 or 84, snap on the optional appliqué foot and sew
around the edge of the appliqué with the straight part of the hand
appliqué stitch. Let the horizontal part of the stitch just catch into the
appliqué. This is the part that will keep the appliqué in place.
