Remove the appliqué fabric from the
embroidery frame, and then carefully cut
along the embroidered cutline.
• If the appliqué is cut out along the inside of the
embroidered cutline, the appliqué may not be
correctly attached to the fabric. Therefore, carefully
cut out the appliqué along the embroidered 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 embroider an
"APPLIQUE POSITION" pattern. The
appliqué position is embroidered, 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
embroidered using the "APPLIQUE
POSITION" pattern in step
• 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.
