Prepare the 5.11x7.08 in hoop with the stabilizer

Place the BALLOON design in the machine and run the first color, which will be the marking for the balloon and the satin ribbons

Place the 4.72 in satin ribbon folded (overlapping both ends) over the top marking

Mark the ends of each of the other 4 satin ribbons at 0.39 in, as shown in the photo below

Position the markings of each ribbon over the markings of the design in the hoop, as shown in the image below, and secure them with small pieces of masking tape (these tapes will not be removed)

Place the 5.51x5.90 in R1 batting and the 5.51x5.90 in tricoline fabric (first appliqué) over the marking and secure with masking tape

Take it to the machine and run the tack-down stitch

Remove from the machine and place the next 5.51x5.90 in R1 batting and the 5.51x5.90 in tricoline fabric (second appliqué) over the first appliqué and secure with masking tape

Take it to the machine and run the second tack-down stitch

Remove from the machine and place the next 5.51x5.90 in R1 batting and the 5.51x5.90 in tricoline fabric (third appliqué) over the second appliqué and secure with masking tape

Take it to the machine and run the third tack-down stitch

Remove from the machine and trim the excess fabric from all appliqués, one by one. Be careful not to cut the satin ribbons when trimming the last appliqué. Do not remove the masking tapes that are holding the satin ribbons in place.

Return to the machine and embroider the next 3 colors (details of the center of the balloon)

Continue with the hoop in the machine and embroider the next two colors, which will be the finishing stitches of the central appliqués

Place the 5.51 x 5.90 in tricoline fabric (lining) on the back side of the hoop and secure it with masking tape

Take it to the machine and run the tack-down stitch

Trim the excess fabric

Change the bobbin and machine thread to the finishing color

Return to the machine and run the finishing stitch

Remove from the hoop, take off the masking tapes and remove the stabilizer. If you used TNT as the base, do not pull it—only trim it

Reserve for assembling the next stage of the Scroll

Prepare the 5.11x7.08 in hoop with stabilizer or TNT

Place the SCROLL design in the machine and run the first color, which will be the marking for the appliqué and the satin ribbons

Take the balloon made in the first stage. Place the loose ends of the satin ribbons on the four markings of the scroll, as done in step 5 of the previous stage, and secure with small pieces of masking tape (these tapes will not be removed). Secure well so they do not come loose, as the balloon will remain attached throughout this stage in the hoop

Place the 5.51x6.29 in R2 batting and the 5.51x6.29 in tricoline fabric over the marking and secure with masking tape

Return to the machine and run the tack-down stitch

Continue with the hoop in the machine and run the color steps until the DATE embroidery is completed on all designs

Remove from the machine, place the 5.51x6.29 in tricoline fabric (lining) on the back side and secure it with masking tape

Take it to the machine and run the final finishing stitch.
