When you appliqué fabric with an embroidery machine you can pre-cut the fabric or trim the fabric during the sewing process. Trevor will show you how to create an embroidery design that is perfect for the process you choose. One aspect of the embroidery design that is fun to customize is the style of appliqué stitch, used to cover or stitch down the fabric. The satin steil stitch is a common choice and very popular because it will cover the edge of the trimmed material creating a nice clean look. However blanket, stitch and many decorative motif stitches are also very popular choices for machine embroidery appliqué. Learn how to use Floriani software to remove the overlapping areas when you layer appliqué fabric. Trevor is sharing a download with a Floriani Asset File with 7 new appliqué stitches.
