UPDATE

Hope this is the right place. For all users of cutting machines there are some tests with cutting fabric for applique.
Tested three variants:
Left site is fabric with embroidery stabilicer ironed on.
Center is fabric with Vliesofix this is an material for appliquet with both sites sticky.
Right site I used only spraystarch.
All cut fine, left and right site are my favorits because on the back of the fabric will be nothing while doing applique.
Now to test how big the offset had to be.
Sorry for the bad english, hope you can understand.
There is the result with the leaf table center. I used the svg file, which came with the embroidery file, seperated the red lines for holding the place of Appliquet parts and cut with iron on embroidery stabilizer.Unfortunately I forget the offset. Only the last color (yellow) shows this mistake because there is a very small satinstitch arround.
On balance the result was:
1.You need half of the time for embroidey because you have not to take the hoop from the machin and cut the stick out fabric away.
2. You can cut your fabric with as little as possible waste on your cutting mat.
3. you should do an offfset, I think about 1 mm
