3 Party with Patrick/February 2014 Rainbow s End mug mat An optional machine embroidery appliqué design to help in making this project is available at under Party with Patrick embroideries! Instructions 1. Refer to the cutting and piecing page for cutting instructions. 2. Trace the templates onto the paper side of your fusible adhesive leaving approximately ½ between tracings. Trace the dashed stitching and placement lines also, if desired. 3. Roughly cut the templates from the adhesive just outside of the traced line. 4. Place the adhesive templates onto the wrong side of their corresponding appliqué fabrics and fuse in place according to manufacturer s instructions. 5. Neatly cut the appliqués from the fabrics on the traced template lines. 6. Transfer the dashed placement lines to the right side of the fabric with a non-permanent pen or pencil, if desired. You can use a light table or daylit window. 7. Peel the paper backing from the appliqués and arrange them on the background piece. Fuse appliqués into place. 8. Place the Sulky Tear-Easy stabilizer behind the block and satin stitch the raw edges of the appliqués, using Sulky Premium 40 wt rayon thread. Remove the stabilizer after stitching. 9. Piece the top, as shown on the cutting and piecing page. 10. Sandwich batting between top and backing with wrong sides of top and backing against batting. 11. Quilt as desired. I used a straight stitch, in matching thread, around each appliqué s satin stitching and in the ditch of all seams. I stitched using a loopy meandering stitch in the background area. 12. Bind as usual, using 2¼ strips cut from the binding fabric. Copyright 2014 All Rights Reserved Visit
