stitch color 1 to 3 with only top fabric
remove hoop not fabric tape lining to back of hoop


stitch color 4

remove hoop not fabric. If you want to put on your snap here it is a good idea, just make sure
the snap is well out of the way of your embroidery foot.
tape pockets in place using color 4 lines as placement lines. For the zipper pocket, make sure it

is slightly over the placement line as it will be stitched down in the last color.
match card pocket to bottom of design so the satin can grip them.


Make sure you don’t move the pocket too far down or you’ll catch the first pocket into the
stitching.

The bottom of the zipper pocket will be stitched down in color 6, creating another pocket.


stitch color 5 making sure your embroidery foot does not get caught in the zipper or the folds for
the cards.
cut of excess
Stitch color 6

be careful to have the zipper tab out of the stich area and take care to watch your machine (and
yourself) when stitching the pockets and over the zipper teeth. If your machine is having
problems, stop the project rather than ruining something.

This worked for me and my machine with the original download from cute. For other designs or
measurements adapt and have fun.
