STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS Take your folded towel and line the folded edge to the middle line and your main fabric edge to the bottom line. The fold of your towel should be centered in the hoop. Press down on the part of the towel that is touching the exposed Perfect Stick to ensure it adheres to the stabilizer. TIP Now, unfold the towel entirely with the right side facing up. Press the fabric to the sticky stabilizer making sure you press all of the bubble out of the fabric before starting your embroidery. The seam that holds the main fabric and the accent fabric together should be perfectly lined up with the bottom guideline stitch. Next, run the basting stitch to help temporarily tack the fabric down to avoid shifting. Then, the next machine step is going to be the placement stitch for the appliqué.
