Remove the hoop from the machine -- do not unhoop the stabilizer -- and place the fabric piece right inside the dieline. Also, trim off any loose stitches on the back of the embroidery.

Attach the hoop back on the machine, and continue embroidering the design. A zig-zag tack down will sew next. These stitches hold the fabric in place. Continue with the design -- a satin stitch border will sew next and then another dieline.

Spray the next largest piece with adhesive and lay it right inside the dieline that just sewed.

Continue with the design. A tack down stitch and a satin stitch border will sew next, followed by another dieline.

Repeat this process until all of the pieces have been placed and sewn. The last color change will stitch in the center -- this finishes off the design and binds all the layers together.

Unhoop the stabilizer and carefully trim around the design.

Soak the design in warm water for at least 10 to 15 minutes or until the stabilizer has dissolved away.

Then, blot the design with paper towels to remove excess moisture.

To give the design more dimension and shape, spray the design with starch, soaking it through.

Pinch the layers together to meet in the center and allow it to air dry. Or, if you do not want to add starch, simply allow the design to dry.
