Creating 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.
Note
• Finish combining and editing the pattern
before selecting the appliqué setting. If the
pattern is edited after selecting the appliqué
setting, the appliqué stitching and pattern may
become misaligned.
• Since an outline is added, the pattern for an
appliqué piece (when the appliqué setting is
selected) will be larger than the original
pattern. First, adjust the size and position of
the pattern as shown below.

order: appliqué cutting line, position of pattern
placement on the garment, and appliqué
stitching.
