CREATING FRINGE EMBROIDERY
STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS
To begin, hoop a piece of Tear Away stabilizer along with
the base fabric of your choice.
NOTE: For this example, we are stitching on white felt.
Run any standard embroidery steps by following along with
your design’s numbered machine steps for the indicated
color changes.
Once your design has finished running, identify the areas
that are specially digitized to be fringed. Then, take your
seam ripper and gently slice them down the center, taking
care not to slice the base material below.
Take your design out of the hoop. With a ruler and a rotary
cutter, trim away any excess material from the design.
Once fringed, your design should look something like this!
Your Fringe Embroidery is now complete!
