APPLIQUÉ INSTRUCTIONS:

Fabric Prep: Appliqué fabric should be washed and dried prior to using so that it’s preshrunk. Also, I recommend adding a layer of flannel to raggy applique as it frays very well and adds depth and dimension to you raggy applique.

DO NOT CHANGE THREAD COLORS. Appliqué files have three steps and you need to keep the thread colors different for these three steps so your machine will stop (single needle machine). Even if you don’t change the thread on the machine, the different colored thread in the design will force the machine to stop.

Step 1 Placement: Place your hooped project on the machine and run the first color. This is the placement stitch to show where to lay the fabric.

Step 2 Tackdown: Lay your fabric over the placement stitch and run the second stitch (if using flannel, lay both pieces together over the placement stitch). This is the tackdown stitch to hold the fabric in place.

Step 3 Finishing Stitch: For raggy edge applique, do not trim the fabric until after the design is finished, unless there are multiple fabric pieces and you need to trim prior to another step stitching on top of it. Run the third and final step which is the edge stitch or finishing stitch.

For designs with two different fabrics, the order is usually bottom layer placement stitch, bottom layer tackdown stitch, top layer placement stitch, top layer tackdown stitch, bottom layer edge stitch, top layer edge stitch. Trim fabric after each tackdown stitch before proceeding to the edge stitch.

Happy Stitching!
