VARIOUS EMBROIDERING
FUNCTIONS

Basting Embroidery

Before embroidering, basting stitches can be sewn
along the outline of the pattern. This is useful for
embroidering fabric that cannot have stabilizer material
affixed with an iron or adhesive. Basting stitches can be
used to attach material that cannot be hooped to
stabilizer, making it possible to be embroidered.
Note
• It is recommended to finish combining and editing
the pattern before selecting the basting setting. If
the pattern is edited after selecting the basting
setting, the basting and pattern may become
misaligned, and the basting under the pattern may
be difficult to remove after embroidering is
complete.

Creating an Appliqué Piece
Creating an appliqué piece is convenient for fabrics that
cannot be embroidered or when you wish to attach an
appliqué to a garment.
■ Creating an Appliqué Piece
The following pattern will be used to create an appliqué
piece.
Note
• Felt or denim fabrics are recommended to make
the appliqué piece. Depending on the pattern and
fabric used, lighter weight fabrics may cause the
stitching to appear smaller.
• For best results, be sure to use stabilizer material
for embroidering.
• When making appliqué pieces, do not use the
optional border embroidery frame. Depending on
the pattern density and fabric used, shrinkage of
the stitching may occur.
