Supplies Needed:

**Piece of fabric for the turkey's figure (I utilized artificial suede)

**A tyke's T-shirt

**Medium weight cutaway stabilizer

**Temporary shower cement

Designs Used: 

I utilized the little size of the Whimsical Turkey (Applique) (Add Feathers). Decide on your design size dependent upon your undertaking necessities.

Fulfilled Size: 7" wide by 6" heightened --your finalized turkey size will hinge on the span of the design and the strips you utilization.

Uncommon Project Notes: 

In the event that you are including the strip-tailed turkey to a napkin or kid's piece of clothing, make certain the strips are measured with the intention that little fingers or hands don't get stayed in them!

The main step is to precut the fabric pieces for the design. I utilized false suede for the applique piece for the turkey's form, yet you can pick any fabric you like.

Any time you download an applique design you will find two records. One will begin with a "Y" accompanied by 4 numbers, and that is the weaving document. The other document closes with "_DL" which stands for "dieline."

Print a duplicate of the dieline record at full estimate with your weaving programming. Provided that you don't have weaving programming or you are unable to print from it, you can weave the dieline document onto a sheet of paper.

After the dielines are printed or sewed, now is the right time to utilize those as "templates" to cut the fabric.

Start by making a "sandwich" of stabilizer, applique fabric, and the paper template.

Shower a bit of cutaway stabilizer with a little provisional cement (I utilize KK100). Smooth the applique fabric on top of the stabilizer. Lay the paper template on top of the fabric and remove the shape.

You might shower the back of the paper template with a touch of cement to keep it set up while you cut.

Rehash this procedure for both applique shapes.


Afterward, make a paper template of the design by printing it at full estimate utilizing weaving programming. Remove the state of the design, and position it on the shirt where you need it. Recollect to permit space for the strips, particularly at the top of the turkey's head. You need to leave some space between the tops of the strips and the neckline, to stoke the present conversation and the solace of the T-shirt wearer.

Jab a gap in the middle of the template and arrange it with the middle focus on the fabric. Utilizing an air-delete pen or other checking device, stamp the core of the template and the level and vertical hub indicates.





Pick the strip you will utilize on your applique turkey. Utilizing fabric paste or impermanent shower cement (I utilized fabric paste), make circles with the strips. The normal length of my longer strips was around 8" (then overlapped fifty-fifty and stuck to the fabric, so they stretch out around 3 1/2" outside the applique fabric). My shorter strips are around 5" long.

For the designed strips, I stuck the front of one end of the lace to the front of the flip side, for the purpose that the plan was noticeable on both sides. You can see an illustration of this in the photograph on the cleared out.

After you have made your circles, position them outdated-measured template so you can see how they will look on the turkey. Move them around until you like the way they look.


Spread the posterior of the applique fabric shape with a touch of cement and append your strip circles. You can additionally append the strips with fabric paste (I utilized fabric paste). Use glue sparingly --for the purpose that they are appended, however less that you can't evacuate the strips and improve them as you go.

Continue flipping the shape over to see how the strips are covering up. Rehash this technique for the other applique fabric shape.





Circle the fabric or article of clothing to be weaved. In the event that you're weaving a T-shirt, create shirt inside. Splash a bit of cutaway stabilizer with impermanent spread cement, and cover it like a pro the design zone.

Turn the shirt right-side out again, and slide the bottom circle inside the shirt. Move the shirt around until the imprints on the shirt line up with the imprints on the circle. Once the bottom circle is lined up, put on the top loop and tighten the screw. (For additional informative data on hooping the aforementioned stretchy pieces of clothing.


Append the loop to the machine and weave the design. The leading thing that sews is the turkey's feet. Afterward, the dieline for the turkey's figure will line. After the turkey's figure dieline has sewn, stop the machine.






Spray the posterior of the figure piece and the backs of the strips where they append with an additional touch of glue, and place the fabric with the strips inside the framework of the dieline.

You can utilize covering tape to hold the strips down, to verify the weaving foot does not get got on them while the design is sewing.

Keep weaving the design. The following thing that will sew is a zig-zag tack down. This will tie the applique fabric to the article of clothing.

When the turkey's form has completed the process of sewing, and the head dieline is sewed, splash the back of the head piece with a cycle of makeshift glue. Place the head with the strips joined onto the T-shirt inside the layout of the dieline. Again, use veiling tape to hold the strips out of the way. Keep weaving the design.







Once the design has completed the process of sewing, unhoop the T-shirt and uproot the concealing tape. Create shirt inside and trim the stabilizer. I ordinarily leave concerning an inch of stabilizer around the design.

















Turn the shirt right-side out again, and your lace-tailed applique turkey is lacking nothing!








Spruce up your occasions with an applique lace-tailed turkey! Shirts, towels, and placemats can all be brilliant and merry with this fun adornment.
