Appliqué stitching

For best results, use the included open toe foot.

Cut out the appliqué, leaving a seam

allowance of between 3 and 5 mm (1/8 and

3/16 inch).

a Seam allowance

Place a pattern made of thick paper or

stabilizer on the back of the appliqué, and then

fold over the seam allowance using an iron.

• Remove the thick paper after pressing the

seam allowance.

Turn the fabric over, and then baste or pin it

onto the fabric that it will be attached to.

a Basting stitching

Turn the handwheel toward you

(counterclockwise), and then begin sewing

around the edge of the appliqué, making sure

that the needle drops just outside of the

appliqué.

When sewing around corners, stop the

machine with the needle in the fabric just

outside of the appliqué, raise the presser foot

lever, and then turn the fabric as needed to

change the sewing direction.
