Using a frame pattern to
create appliqués (2)
There is another way of sewing appliqués. With this
method, there is no need to change the fabric in the
embroidery frame. The appliqué can be created by
sewing two frame patterns of the same size and
shape—one sewn with straight stitches and the other
sewn with satin stitches.
1
Select a frame pattern sewn with straight
stitches to embroider onto the base fabric.
2
Place the appliqué fabric over the embroidery
sewn in step
1. Make sure that the area
surrounded by the stitching is not larger than
the area of the appliqué fabric.
