For use with hand appliqué or hand-guided machine appliqué • Place SoftWeb over the pattern with the paper side UP. • Trace the pattern. The pattern should be REVERSED from the way it will be used in the project. • Rough-cut the SoftWeb approximately ¼” from the edge of the traced pattern. • Place the SoftWeb web side DOWN (Paper side UP) onto the WRONG side of the appliqué fabric. • From the paper side, press with a dry, medium-hot iron (silk setting) for 3-5 seconds. SoftWeb is very fine, so it takes only a few seconds to bond. • Cut out the shape you traced on the paper backing. • Peel away the paper backing from the appliqué fabric. • Position appliqué fabric onto backing fabric. • Press into place with a dry, medium-hot iron (silk setting) iron for 3-5 seconds. • Finish appliqué with hand or machine stitching. For use with machine-embroidered (in the hoop) appliqué: • Prepare fabric for appliqué by hooping with the appropriate stabilizer. Stitch the placement stitch for the appliqué design. Using a printed appliqué pattern: • On an inkjet printer, print a mirror image of the applique shape (at 100% scale) onto the paper side of the SoftWeb sheet. • Rough-cut the SoftWeb approximately ¼” from the edge of the printed pattern. • Place the SoftWeb web side DOWN (Paper side UP) onto the WRONG side of the appliqué fabric. • From the paper side, press with a dry, medium-hot iron (silk setting) for 3-5 seconds. SoftWeb is very fine, so it takes only a few seconds to bond. • Cut out the shape printed on the paper backing. • Peel away the paper backing from the appliqué fabric. • Remove the hoop from the embroidery machine. • Place hoop onto pressing surface. • Position appliqué fabric onto backing fabric, aligning it with the placement lines. • Press appliqué fabric into place with an iron. Use a dry, medium-hot iron (silk setting) for 3-5 seconds. • Return the hoop to the machine and stitch remaining color changes to complete your design.
