 This month for our Luminaire (and Solaris) owners, we’ll be using one of the new features from the last Upgrade in converting stitches to an applique. In this class, we’ll use the Teddy Bear built-in design, resizing it and converting the body of the bear to applique and will turn off the stitches that were part of the original design. This method is not limited to just built in designs. Even if you don’t own a Luminaire but would like to see how this feature works, come join us!

Supplies needed:

• 9 ½ x 9 ½ hoop
• Stabilizer (I used cutaway)
• Background fabric to fit your hoop
• Fabric for your teddy bear (if using a “furry” fabric make sure you also have a topper stabilizer)
• Embroidery thread for the teddy bear design
• Embroidery scissors
