This pattern includes digitized embroidery applique designs compatible with the Quiltworx Cactus Flower applique shapes. Foundation papers and applique sheets are sold separately.

The CD contains machine embroidery designs in the following formats: .art, .art60, .dst, .exp, .hus, .jef, .pes, .shv, .vip, and .vp3.

The designs have been divided up so that they can be stitched out using a hoop with an embroidery field that is at LEAST 145mm x 255mm (5.7” x 10”) - Cactus Flower 3 - Hoopings.

Full-sized layouts for each of the sections are included as PDFs (they are “tiled” and can be taped together)

SVG and PDF Cutting Files included. There are also instructions for preparing Applique shapes using the Stitch-N-Peel Templates.

This pattern was not designed for the type of applique where you cut away the extra fabric. The templates are the actual applique size and after cutting out the pieces, you will place the pieces within stitched-out placement lines.

HOWEVER: You CAN use the cutaway method for your applique, but you will have to repeat the placement line after you place your fabric down and before you cut your fabric away.   I do not include a second placement line or a tack down stitch in my designs.
