Appliqué Appliqués are quickly made and always produce a beautiful effect The appliqué foot (special accesso ries) allows you to achieve perfect, densely stitched seams because it has a special cutout on the underside for the purl seam. It also allows you to turn corners and curves with ease. Prepare the appliqué as follows: Design a motif that you would like to appliqué onto the background. Iron paper-backed fusing web onto the back of the pieces of the motif. Now pull the paper off the pieces to be appliquéd and iron these onto the fabric according to the motif. Now you can start: Overstitch all of the contours with the zigzag stitch, the finer the thread, the more densely the stitch length should be set When you reach a curve, use the "needle down" function to help you guide the work more easily and achieve a more uniform seam. Make sure that the needle stitches completely over the outer edge so that no fraying occurs later. TIP: A particularly attractive stitch for appliqué work is stitch No. 1 6. The zigzag seam is broader and flatter with this stitch. Nevertheless, take care to use a very fine thread for this stitch and set the stitch length at approx. 0.4-0.5. C. 110 L
