To begin, hoop a piece of No Show mesh stabilizer to fit your
hoop. Run the first step in the design, which will be a squaring
stitch for the batting. NOTE: We are stitching block NAK20, which
contains only standard appliqués.
Run the next step in the design which will be a tacking stitch for
the batting.
Place a piece of batting over the squaring stitches, being sure to
cover them on all sides.
Use a pair of scissors to trim away the excess batting from the
tacking stitches.
Continue to the next machine step, which will be a placement
stitch indicating where to lay your first piece of standard appliqué.
Take a piece of appliqué and place it right side up and over the
placement stitches, being sure to have enough fabric extending
outside the block to have a 1⁄2” seam allowance.
