    Final Product: What You Will Create
     

    Step 1:
    Hoop organdy or nylon over your fabric and stabilizer.

    Step 2:
    Sew the first outline. Take the hoop out of the machine (do not unhoop) and carefully trim close to the edge.

    Step 3:
    Place back in the machine and sew the remainder or the design. Hoop a clear stabilizer along with organdy or nylon.

    Step 4:
    Sew dress up to the single stitch outline. Take out of the machine and trim closely.

    Step 5:

    Place back into the machine and sew the remainder of the dress. When done, unhoop and cut around design.

    Step 6:
    Next: follow the instructions as above for the Wings and Fairies. Stop when you finish sewing the solid dress. This should leave you two colors. Take hoop out of the machine and position the dress, matching the bottom and sides to the solid dress on the fairy.

    Step 7:
    Tape one side at a time, leaving the center of the dress in a slight mound.

    Step 8:
    Keep fingers away from the design when doing the tackdown. Sew the next color (single stitch tackdown). Take out of the machine and carefully remove tape and trim closely around the dress. Place back in the machine and complete the design.

    Hi, my name is Marlene Stewart. I was born in Indiana and really have a strange career path of - secretary at a brokerage firm in Chicago. In 1972 I moved to Arkansas and became owner of a TV/VCR sales and repair, then school insurance coordinator, Realtor, bakery owner, arts & crafts, now digitize. I began teaching myself to digitize in 1992 after I purchased my first embroidery software and Brother PE150 embroidery machine since then I have upgraded software and machines. My husband is retired from the U.S. Air Force and I have a 36 year old son. My favorite part of the day is evening when my husband and I cuddle with a blanket and watch science fiction movies. I love digitizing, my husband calls it a love affair and admire the works of Thomas Kinkade.
