7. Finishing the appliqué
In order to prevent threads from being pulled out, attach the iron-on adhesive film to the wrong side
of the embroidery. Then, cut the embroidery into any shape you want.
CAUTION
•
Before the iron-on adhesive film is attached, the embroidery threads can easily be pulled
out. Be careful not to pull them out.
NOTE
•
A reference line of stitching is sewn around the
pattern so the pattern can be cut out more easily.
1 Reference line of stitching (line that shows how to
cut out the embroidery)
•
The reference line may not be sewn around all
patterns.
•
If you do not want to cut out the embroidery
along the reference line, carefully take out the reference line threads before ironing on
the adhesive film.
Place the right side of the embroidery face

down. Then, completely cover the threads
with the iron-on adhesive, making sure that
the printed backing paper faces up.
Make sure that the backing paper is on the top.
1 Ironing board
2 Pre-cut design fabric (wrong side facing up)
3 Iron-on adhesive (printed backing paper facing up)
Be sure to heat the iron to a medium

temperature of 285 to 320 F (140 to 160
C) and not to use the steam setting. Then,
press the iron down for 30 to 40 seconds on
the backing paper of the iron-on adhesive.
NOTE
•
If some of the adhesive melts onto the iron, wait until the iron cools down, and then peel
off the adhesive.
