CREATING LOOP FRINGE
STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS
To begin, hoop a piece of Tear-Away stabilizer and the base
fabric of your choice.
NOTE: For this example, we are stitching on a white felt
base fabric.
Run the embroidery, being sure to follow along with your
design’s numbered machine steps for any color changes.
When the design finishes stitching, remove the hoop from
the machine, then flip it to the back side so the bobbin
stitches face you. Begin to score, or slice, through the
bobbin thread anchoring the wider-set stitches.
Continue to locate and score any areas the loop fringe has
been digitizing for, taking care not to remove the bobbin
thread on the skinny, anchoring satin stitched rows.
