**An alternative
to step 1 and 2 is to place the Web Magic in your
embroidery frame and stitch the outline! Use a light
colored thread but one you can see to trim around.
This will also insure that your image will be the
exact embroidered size. Once the outline is stitched
on the Web Magic remove the piece from the embroidery
frame and trim it down, but not too close to the outline,
save that for step 4! Continue with step 3.

Traditional
Appliqué using Web Magic:
-
Trace or print the design to be appliquéd onto
the protective paper sheet of Web Magic. *Remember to
use the "reverse" of the image. Tip! Use a
light box or trace at a window for accuracy!
-
Trim
around the image leaving at least ¼" inch
of Web Magic outside the traced lines.
-
Fuse
Web Magic to the wrong side of decorative fabric using
a medium/high temperature on your iron (No Steam). The
fusible side of Web Magic is the soft/shiny side. Hold
the iron in place for at least 3 seconds and then flip
the piece over and press again on the fabric side.
-
After it has cooled, cut out the appliqué design
using the trace lines.
-
Peel
back the protective sheet to expose the sticky surface.
-
Position the appliqué piece on the garment and
press in to place using a medium/high iron temperature.
Hold the iron to the appliqué for at least 3
seconds. *Press on the appliqué side and the
fabric side for maximum bonding.
-
Finish
by stitching around the appliqué with a satin
or decorative stitch.
**Remember
that your traced image will be reversed once it is traced
onto the paper side of Web Magic. Make adjustments to the
original image to prevent this.
**NOTE: All irons heat differently.
The iron temperature given above is a starting point. If
you find that you are not getting a good fuse, slowly increase
your irons temperature until you achieve a good bond.
