Embroidery:
|
Step One: Prepare a sandwich out of a layer of water-soluble mesh, polyester craft felt and cotton fabric.
|
|
| Hoop this sandwich, tighten the hoop. |
Step Two: Upload a file into the machine. Start the machine and embroider the first 2 colors - color 1 is the outline of the coaster and color 2 is the background quilting.
|
|
Step Three: DO NOT UNHOOP! With a pair of sharp scissors, neatly cut away the top fabric around the stitch-out. Take care not to cut through the stitches.
Then neatly cut away the felt. Take care not to cut through the stitches or the stabilizer! |
|
Step Four: Return the hoop to the machine. The next color will embroider the central motif. The last color will finish the raw edges.
Trimp the jump stitches.
Open the hoop. Cut away the stabilizer close to the stitches. |
|
Step Five: Fill the bowl with warm water and dissolve the remaining stabilizer.
Place the stitch-outs on the towel and leave to air dry.
Press if needed.
|
| Enjoy! |
