Embroider the first object. It shows you where to place the patches of skai. The outline is slightly bigger than the finished christmas tree. The colour of your upper or spool thread doesn’t matter, it will be cut away afterwards.

Spray olne patch of skai (on the back) with temporary adhesive spray and place it over the outline on the upper side of the hoop.

Embroider the red balls (take any colour of bobbinthread).

Embroider the green garlands in a contrasting green thread (bobbinthread in any colour).

Spray the other patch of skai with Mettler Web Bond temporary adhesive spray and put it on the back of the project, over the outline of the christmas tree.

Embroider the christmas tree in the same colour as the garlands and take the same bobbin thread. Continue embroidering the rectangles in dark green. They help you to find the place to position the velcro.

Fix the double sided adhesive hobbytape in the rectangles for the velcro. For the trunk, you’ll place it on the front, for the upper part, place it on the back of the tree.

Fix the velcro in the rectangles:

Here comes the last embroidery object for the cable binder, take dark green for the upper rectangle and brown in the trunk, to sew the velcro to the cable binder.

Embroidery is finished now.
