STEP 1
Canvas Type fabric and Pellon 809 (fusible) is what I like to use for ornaments. Fabric can be anything you want really. Just make sure it’s not too thin😉

I fuse the two together by ironing. (This helps prevent puckering)

STEP 2
Hoop your fused stabilizer/ fabric and attach to the machine

STEP 3
Pull up your design on machine.
Here we have our design already on the machine and ready to go. I have used here the 3.5” border (which fits the 4” ornament hoop perfectly) and our new “coming soon” mail truck ornament design.

STEP 4
Just a tip really☺️
Make sure the border stitched first. Again, this will help reduce puckering 

STEP 5
After the design has finished stitching, you’ll want to cut around the design about 2-3”. Maybe less once you’ve done a few and are certain how much excess to leave

STEP 6
Center your border with the hoop that has the adjuster on top. (Make sure you have loosened it or your going to have a hard time

STEP 7
Press fabric over the inside hoop and cut away the excess. Tighten the adjuster once you have done so.

 

Last, just add your ribbon and you’re done!
