Instructions
Preparation:
- Cut out jeans, and assemble front according to pattern.
- Assemble back according to pattern.
- Stitch outside leg seam on left leg and clean finish seams.
- Press seam allowances open.
- Print or stitch out templates of the design.
- Arrange multiple designs up the side of the leg, using the seamline as a
centering placement guide. Note: For variety, mirror
image every other design.
Directions for Futura™ users:
- Turn on the Futura machine.
- Place large hoop with the stabilizer onto the machine.
- Open Futura software. In the TEXT portion of the software, type a small
period in the text box and apply stitches. Center the pattern by using the
center function of the software.
- Open a new screen and open the floral design. Center the design by using
the center function in the software.
- Transmit the first pattern (the period) to the Futura machine. Using the
period to find the center of the hoop, place the fabric on top of the adhesive
stabilizer and insert the needle in the center of the x-y line. When the fabric
is in the desired position, press firmly into place smoothing from the center
out. This will assure that the design will sew in the proper position. Cancel
transmission.
- Now transmit the floral design to the machine. Stitch.
- Repeat steps 2 through 6 for as many repeats of the design as desired, remembering
to mirror image every other design.
Directions for QUANTUM® XL-150, XL1000, XL-5000 and XL-6000 users:
- Turn on machine and place large hoop with adhesive stabilizer on machine.
- Using the built-in lettering, enter a small (7mm) period. Use the editing
tools to center the period.
- Open the floral design. Use the editing tools to center the design.
- On the sew screen start sewing out the period without thread in the machine
needle. Machine will move to center of the hoop and only sew a few stitches
before it stops. Clear the error message. Place the fabric on top of the adhesive
stabilizer. Insert the needle in the center of the X-Y lines. This will ensure
that the design will stitch in the center of the square. When the square is
correctly placed, press the fabric onto the stabilizer, smoothing from the
center out. Cancel embroidery. Using the eyeglasses, move to the floral pattern.
- Thread machine and stitch out the design.
- Repeat steps 2 through 5 for as many repeats of the design as desired,
remembering to mirror image every other design.
