Freehand Monogramming; Appliqué Work - White 310 Operator Instructions Manual

FREEHAND MONOGRAMMING
For giving garments and linens a personaliz
ed touch, first transfer the design to the
right side of the fabric.
An embroidery
hoop is recommended especially for soft
fabrics and toweling.
In order to monogram, you must move
the fabric slowly and run the machine
rapidly.
Monogramming is like writing by
moving the paper under a stationary pen.
Guide the fabric slowly so that the zigzag
falls close together like a satin stitch, but be
careful that the stitches do not pile up.
When guiding from
side to side, move
fabric slightly faster to avoid a heavy area.
Practice by forming loops.
Once this is
accomplished any letter is easy.
Sometimes the use of paper or non-woven
interfacing
under the fabric may make
guiding the fabric easier.
The paper or
interfacing may be torn or cut away at the
completion of the monogram. When mono
gramming towels, plastic film placed on the
top will help cover loops and make the
monogram smooth.
Pull or cut away
remaining plastic film when finished.

APPLIQUE
Applying decorative shapes of fabric scraps
to household articles and clothing is a very
interesting way of trimming an otherwise
plain article.
First, trace the design on
fabric to be appliqued, then pin or baste it
securely in place on garment. With a small
straight stitch or narrow zigzag, sew around
the traced design.
At the excess fabric is trimmed away, sew
around the applique with a satin stitch. For
a smooth curve, stop frequently at the inside
edge of the curve to pivot the fabric slightly.
Corners look much better when the point is
stitched by pivoting rather than just turned.
As with all decorative stitches, paper may be
used to give more body to the fabric when
stitching and can be torn away when the
,aPPliue is completed.
