Appliqués are easily sewn and always produce a beautiful
effect. By using different materials and patterns you can
create countless new designs. You can make a perfect,
densely stitched seam with the appliqué foot, which has a
special cutout on its sole for the satin-stitch seam.
• Attach the appliqué foot.
•
Transfer your drafted pattern to the paper side of a
fusible, paper-backed webbing (Vliesofix). Remember
that any letters or numbers have to be drawn as mirror
images.
•
Iron the fusible webbing onto the appliqué material. Cut
out your motif and peel the paper from the back of the
appliqué.
•
Position and press your appliqué pieces in place on your
base fabric.
Place a stabilizer under your work area.
• Overstitch all contours with a narrow satin stitch zigzag.
Make sure that the needle oversews the outer edge so
that no fraying occurs later.
Appliqués are easily sewn and always produce a beautiful
effect. If you use the open toe appliqué foot with program
18 you obtain an additional effect: your appliqué will look as
if stitched by hand.
•
Cut out your appliqué pieces without any seam
allowance.
•
Iron a fusible, paper-backed webbing (Vliesofix) onto
the back of your base fabric. Now peel the paper from
the back of the appliqué pieces. Position and press the
appliqué pieces on the fabric.
•
Attach the open toe appliqué foot.
• Select program 18 and guide the edge of the appliqué
pattern along the right-hand inner edge of the foot. This
will produce a uniform seam along the edge of the
pattern. The straight stitch will be almost entirely sink-
stitched, which creates the hand-made effect.
