You can specify whether to pre-cut your appliqué or trim it in place:
Use the ‘pre-cut’ style if the appliqué shape has already been cut on an appliqué cutter or by some other means.
Use the ‘trim-in-place’ style if you want to cut the appliqué fabric on the machine.
Select and double-click the appliqué object. The Appliqué tab is divided into six functional areas – fabric, style, tack stitch, cover stitch, offsets, and frame-out.
Use the ‘pre-cut’ style if the appliqué shape has already been cut on an appliqué cutter or by some other means. This option includes a placement line as a guide to position pre-cut fabric patches prior to tack down.
Check appliqué layers using the Stitch Player. Note that ‘pre-cut’ includes three elements – placement line, tack stitch, cover stitch...
In addition to a placement line, the trim-in-place style adds a cutting line to hold fabric in place and provide a cutting guide. Use this option if you want to cut the appliqué fabric in place.
