Step-by-Step
Instructions
A B
To begin, hoop a piece of No Show mesh to fit your hoop and
load the block of your choice. Run the first machine step, which
will be a squaring stitch for the batting.
For our example, we are stitching CVQ1.
Take a piece of batting and place it over the squaring stitch,
being sure to cover the stitches on all sides.
C D
Continue to run the tacking stitch for the batting. Once tacked down, use scissors to trim away the excess batting
from the tacking stitches.
E F
Once trimmed, proceed to run the next design step, which will
be a placement stitch for a standard appliqué.
Take a piece of appliqué fabric and lay it right side up over
the placement stitch. Remember to leave at least a 1⁄2” seam
allowance extending outside the block.
