Designs Used:


Gather Materials:

A hand holds a purple and white marker above brown fabric on a wooden table with a metal ruler positioned diagonally on the fabric.

With your embroidery software, create paper templates of the designs by printing them at full-size. Cut around the designs to make them manageable.


Place the border designs 3 inches from the top center and 3 inches from the bottom center. Measure equal distances in from the sides of the embroidered area to the center of the designs.


Place the other designs 1 x 1 1/4 inches from the edge of the designs to the edge of the border designs. Using an air-erase pen, poke a hole in the center of the templates and mark the fabric. Mark the horizontal and vertical axis points, as well.

Start Embroidering:

Lightly spray the stabilizer with temporary adhesive. Hoop the fabric and stabilizer together for the first design, aligning the lines on the hoop with the lines on the fabric. Align the needle directly over the center point on the fabric, and embroider the first design.


Repeat hooping and embroidering the other designs for all the designs on the outer shell.
