Basting Embroidery

Before embroidering, basting stitches can be sewn along the outline of the pattern. This is useful for

stabilizer material to the fabric, shrinkage of the stitching or misaligned pattern can be minimized.

editing the pattern before selecting the

the basting under the pattern may be
difficult to remove after embroidering is
complete.
