Run the next machine step, which is the placement stitch for
the first appliqué.
Place the appliqué fabric right side facing up directly over
the placement stitches, being sure to cover them entirely on
all sides.
Run the next machine step, which is the tacking stitch that
secures the fabric to the design.
Using a pair of curved tip embroidery scissors, neatly trim
away the excess fabric close to the tacking stitch, being sure
not to clip through any stitches.
