First, spray a piece of medium weight cutaway stabilizer with
temporary adhesive and smooth the
fabric on top (the fabric that you
are embroidering the applique
onto). Then, hoop the fabric and
stabilizer together, attach the hoop
to the machine, and embroider the
design according to these
instructions -

To
create the backside of the pin, cut
another piece of fabric the same
size as the embroidered piece. Then,
spray the backside of the
embroidered piece with adhesive. |
|
|
|
|
Lay the embroidered piece on top of
the back fabric piece, wrong sides
together, and press in place. |
|
|
|
|
Cut around edges of the design
leaving about a 1/2 inch of fabric. |
|
|
|
|
Sew
a 1/4 inch seam around the outer
edges of the pin. |
|
|
|
|
To add the pin back, add a few drops
of hot glue to the back of the pin
and press it in place in the center
of the back fabric. |
