| Cutwork designs can be embroidered as applique. For this project we
chose two cutwork designs that have oval outlines - the Three
Roses Medallion Cutwork Lace and Rose
Lace III. |

| For the project, you will need a sweat-shirt, see-through light-weight
iron-on mesh stabilizer, a piece of fabric for the applique and embroidery
threads to match the color of the sweat-shirt. |
|
| Mark the position of the embroidery on the sweat-shirt. Stabilize the
shirt fabric with the iron-on mesh. Cover with the applique fabric. Hoop.
There will be 3 layers in the hoop: applique fabric, sweat-shirt fabric
and iron-on mesh stabilizer. |
|
| Start embroidering the design. The machine will embroider the outline
of the design and stop. |
|
| With a pair of sharp scissors cut away the fabric outside the oval
as shown on the picture below. |
|
| Return the hoop to the machine and finish the embroidery. |
|
| Cut away the excess stabilizer. Your new sweat-shirt is ready. For
this sweat-shirt we used the Rose
Lace III design. |
|
| The pink sweater is done in the same way. |
|
| For this sweater we used the Three
Roses Medallion Cutwork Lace design. |

Happy Embroidering!
