London Soldier with Sallieann Harrison
Embroidery • Educational, G, 02-Jun-2023
Wool applique by machine means you are able to get more projects finished than if you would working by hand, but the effect is the same.
Sallieann shows stages of creating this project. She starts with the tracing off the pattern through setting up the machine and the stitch length. Also, she reminds us that the tension needs to be adjusted. And we get to see how well she is able to pivot round the corners, using the open toed applique foot so that she has great visability.
The pattern is available to purchase as a download - click here
