CAUTION:
To prevent accidents, do not change the stitch

temporary fabric spray adhesive or by using
fusible web.
2. Sew with the right side of the stitch following
the right edge of the applique as closely as

the Satin Foot (p. 56). It may be helpful to place a
fabric stabilizer underneath your work, which may
help prevent any fabric puckering.
