Sewing appliqué patterns
Some of the built-in embroidery patterns can be
used for sewing appliqués. Follow the procedures
described below to sew appliqués using the
patterns with "APPLIQUE MATERIAL",
"APPLIQUE POSITION" or "APPLIQUE" in the
region display at the top of the thread color
sequence display.
"APPLIQUE MATERIAL", "APPLIQUE POSITION"
and "APPLIQUE" are assigned to a specific needle
bar number.
*Depending on the thread color display setting,
the display may appear as

■ Procedure for sewing appliqués

fabric/material.

Remove the appliqué fabric from the
embroidery frame, and then carefully cut
along the sewn cutline.
• If the appliqué is cut out along the inside of the sewn
cutline, the appliqué may not be correctly attached to
the fabric. Therefore, carefully cut out the appliqué
along the sewn cutline. If this step is not performed
carefully, the appliqué will not be cleanly finished. In
addition, carefully remove any excess threads.
Frame the base fabric or garment in the
embroidery frame, and then sew an
"APPLIQUE POSITION" pattern. The
appliqué position is sewn, and then the
machine stops.
Lightly apply fabric glue or spray adhesive
to the back of the appliqué piece that was
cut out, and then attach the appliqué piece
to the base fabric at the position sewn using
the "APPLIQUE POSITION" pattern in step
d
.
• If an iron-on stabilizer is used to attach the appliqué
piece to the base fabric, iron the pieces together
without removing the base fabric from the embroidery
frame.
