Final Product: What You Will Create

Preface:

When stitching FSL designs, I always wind my bobbins with the same color thread so the back looks the same

Step 1:

Gather the materials and read through the instructions before beginning. Have a copy of the color sequence on hand to refer to

Step 2:

Hoop the 2 layers of water disolvable backing then load the design onto your machine and attach the hoop

Step 3:

Stitch out the 3 color design

Step 4:

Remove the hoop from the machine and unhoop your design. Trim jump threads and loosely cut around the design leaving about 1” of backing all the way around

Step 5:

Now to dissolve the backing, fully submerge the design into water, ensuring you follow the manufacturers directions for the backing. Leave the design submerged for a few minutes to allow the backing to dissolve
