Final Product: What You Will Create

Step 1:

Print the dieline files. Locate the files with the -a & -b at the end of them except for the SEW & PCS files. The SEW & PCS dieline files are -c & -d. Print 2 of the -a/-c files and 1 of the -b/-d files with your embroidery software and a printer. If you do not have embroidery software, a great program to use is Wilcom TrueSizer which is a free download online.

Step 2:

Cut the paper down close to the template of each of the designs. Use a light temporary spray adhesive and spray on the back of your paper templates. Place each paper template onto your applique fabric pieces.

Step 3:

Cut applique fabric and paper along the template dieline for each of the applique pieces. Remove the paper template.

Step 4:

Set the applique pieces aside.

Step 5:

Hoop a piece of tearaway stabilizer. Place the hoop on the machine and embroider the first color stop which is the pocket dieline. Go to the next step.

Step 6:

Lightly spray the pocket applique with the adhesive.

Step 7:

Place the applique inside the dieline. Start the machine again and embroider thru color stop 4, then stop the machine and remove the hoop.

Step 8:

Remove the fabric from the hoop and gently tearaway the stabilizer from around the pocket and from the back of the pocket. Set the pocket aside.

Step 9:

Hoop a piece of tearaway stabilizer and embroider the next color stop which is the dieline for the front applique.

Step 10:

Lightly spray the backside of the front applique piece with a spray adhesive.

Step 11:

Place the applique piece within the dielines and continue sewing to the next dieline.

Step 12:

This dieline is for the back applique piece. Remove hoop from machine and flip hoop over to back side. (DO NOT REMOVE design from hoop.) Lightly Spray the back applique with adhesive and place inside the dielines. Gently re-hoop and it will tackdown the backside to the front.

Step 13:

The next dieline will be the pocket. Remove the hoop from the machine and flip the hoop over to the back side. (DO NOT REMOVE the design from the hoop.) Lightly spray the sides of the pocket piece with adhesive place inside the dielines. Gently re-hoop and it will tackdown the pocket to the front piece.

Step 14:

Continue sewing until the final color stop. Remove the design from the hoop then gently tearaway the stabilizer from your new ITH Holiday Utensil Holder!
