To start, wind a bobbin to match the top thread. This way, the embroidery will look the same on both sides.
Hoop 2 pieces of wash away stabilizer and run the
placement stitch.
Place the organza and on top of the placement stitch. Make
sure the organza completely covers the placement stitch,
then run the tacking stitch.
TECHNIQUE
Organza comes in lots of different
shades and opacities, but not all of
them will match your favorite color! To
achieve the perfect color, we layered
several pieces of different colored
organza to create an exact match. As
an example, for this particular design,
we used 1 layer of brown, 2 layers of
orange, and 1 layer of red organza.
Keep in mind that you may need a
couple more layers or a couple less to
create the color you’re looking for. We
suggest using a minimum of 2 pieces
of organza no matter what color you
choose, for added strength.
