Handy HintsFor 3D Appliqué Projects:• Adhere 1 layer of OESD StabilStick Tear Away to the

back of appliqué fabrics with temporary adhesive spray BEFORE hooping or placing down for tackdown and cut in place. This gives fabric a more rigid structure.

• A pair of tweezers, hemostats, stiletto or a tiny crochet hook can be extremely helpful when inserting the buttonettes into the eyelets. (See Diagram 1 for explanation of “buttonette” and “eyelet”.)

• Insert the tip of the tweezers, hemostats or crochet hook into the eyelet, grasp the buttonette and pull through the eyelet. Or a stiletto could be used to push the buttonette through the eyelet.

Supplies:Embroidery Thread:• Use the same embroidery thread in the bobbin as the needle.

Needles:• Use an Organ 80/12 Titanium needle for extended needle life.

Stabilizer:• Use water-soluble stabilizer or film water-soluble stabilizer.

Supplies• OESD AquaMesh stabilizer• OESD StabilStick Tear Away (for appliqué sections)• Isacord threads (use the same embroidery thread in the bobbin as the needle)• Appliqué fabrics (for appliqué sections)• Optional: alligator clamps, tweezer, hemostats, stiletto or crochet hook

Follow the General Freestanding Applique Guidelines to stitch the required pieces as listed in the summary above for the Firehouse.NOTE: The base of the building has a hole meant to contain a battery operated tea light candle.

General Firehouse Instructions• For each appliqué section, place a scrap of OESD StabilStick on the wrong side of one of the appliqué pieces. This will

interface and stiffen the appliqué fabrics to help them hold up to the lace stitching and the rinsing and drying process. • Stitch each piece on two layers of OESD AquaMesh stabilizer. • For best results, match the bobbin thread to the top thread throughout the design. (This will mean switching out the

bobbin several times for each design.)• After stitching each design, cut away the excess OESD AquaMesh stabilizer. Rinse the design in warm running water. • Allow the pieces to dry overnight. Press each piece flat with a warm iron if

needed once dry. Use starch if needed.
