Imagine, the sea, the sun, you with a straw suitcase or a picnic bag. There is a bottle of refreshing juice, some fruits, light food… Cutlery is wrapped in a napkin with bright blue ornate ornaments. Snow-white textiles and contrasting blue embroidery, blinded by the sun, fresh wind. It is really beautiful!

~ Transfer marks using a drawing pencil or an air-erase pen. Connect the points of the axes.

~ Take the tear-away stabilizer. Draw a horizontal and vertical line on it. Fix the stabilizer, correlating the marks on the canvas and on the embroidery frame. Then spray the temporary spray adhesive and apply a napkin on top. Remember, for the best result, take the biggest hoop you have.

~ Put the template on top for verification. If everything looks the way you plan, remove the printed template. Wrap the napkin and pinch its edges. This will help to avoid getting it under the embroidery machine. Place the needle in the center of the embroidery. Start the embroidery design.

~ You can attach the fabric for reliability before embroidering. Choose such a function in your embroidery machine, if such is present in it.

~ After embroidery tear off the excess stabilizer. Also cut off excess threads.

Following these instructions, you can easily embroider Nordic Folk Machine embroidery design on a napkin for a summer picnic. Alternatively, you can place such embroidery (or another design from the Scandinavian collection) on a beach bag. It turns out an extraordinary beauty kit.
