These are instructions on how to use/embroider and assemble the designs from the Decorative Kitchen Pocket Set.
|
|
You will need:
- embroidery threads, eiher polyester or rayon,
- solid color cotton fabric (we used Osnaburg),
- craft felt,
- bias tape or fabric for bias binding,
- #12 universal sewing needle,
- sewing threads of matching colors,
- scissors or rotary cutter,
- trim to make a loop (you can use bias tape for this, if you like),
- iron.
|
| Embroidery |
Cut 2 pieces of cotton fabric and a piece of felt. Make a sandwich with felt between the fabric layers.
Upload the file "pocket-back" into the machine and embroider it. |
|
| Using charp scissorss, cut out the back panels leaving 1/4" margins. |
|
For the pocket fronts, use only 2 layers - fabric and felt. The felt works as a stabilizer.
Embroider the files and cut them out, leaving 1/4" margins. |
|
Assembly:
|
| With bias tape finish the raw upper edge of the pockets. |
|
| Pin the pocket to the back panel and align the edges. Then topstitch the pocket in place along the outer line of the embroidery. |
|
Out of trim or binding, cut a piece and pin it to the upper edge, as shown on the picture below. Then topstitch the loop in place.
|
|
Now finish the raw edges with the bias tape.
|
|
| Use the designs of holly, bell and ball to decorate small towels or dishcloth. |
|
|
| Enjoy! |
