push

butlon

As

the

16.
Applique:
Stitch
applique
designs
in
place
with
a
zigzag
satin
stitch. Fuse
the
applique
to
the
fabric
with
a
fusible
web.
Place
tear-a-way
stabilizer
under the
fabric.
Try
the
stitch
on
a
scrap
of
stabilized
fabric
before sewing
on
your
project
and
adjust
the
stitch
length
as
needed.
For
best
results,
thread
the
top
with a
decorative
rayon
thread.
Use
medium
to
wide
zigzag
stitch.
The
larger
the
applique,
the wider
the
width. Set
the
stitch
length
at
1’
and
begin
to
sew
on
your
scrap.
Turn
the
stitch length
dial
toward
0
until
the
zigzag
stitching
is
very
close together
and
satiny.
This
is
called a
satin
stitch.
An
open toe
applique
foot,
which
is
available
as
an
optional
accessory,
will
feed smoothly
over
the
satin
stitch
thanks to
a
tunnel
on
the
underside
of
the
foot
and
the
open
toe
gives
visibility
as
you
sew
around
the
applique.
17.
Straight
Stretch
Stitch:
Ideal
for
knits and
seams
where extra
reinforcement
is
needed
so
the
seam
does
not
pop.
