Prepare the hoop with the stabilizer.

Load the design into the machine and run the first color, which will be the placement stitch.

Place the R2 batting over the placement line first, then the TNT. Secure the edges with masking tape.

Return to the machine and run the marking stitches.
The marking indicated with a CIRCLE will be used in Step 02.
The marking indicated with an ARROW is for the first appliqué (support).

Place the tricoline fabric (support) over the appliqué marking and secure with masking tape.

Return to the machine and run the tack-down stitch and the center marking of the support.

Remove the masking tape and trim the excess fabric from the sides. Do not trim the TNT or batting.

In the inner marking, trim the fabric, TNT, and batting without cutting the hoop stabilizer.

Return to the machine and run the marking for the next appliqué (body).

Place the polka dot tricoline (body) over the marking and secure with masking tape.

Return to the machine and run the tack-down stitch and the wing marking.

Remove the masking tape and trim the excess fabric.

Place the tricoline (wing) over the wing marking and secure with masking tape.

Return to the machine and run the tack-down stitch. After securing, remove the masking tape and trim the excess fabric.

Return to the machine and run the marking for the next appliqué (head).

Place the tricoline (head) over the marking and secure with masking tape. Run the tack-down stitch. After securing, remove the masking tape.

Trim the excess fabric.

Return to the machine and run the marking for the next appliqué (comb and wattle).

Place the tricoline (wattle) over the lower marking and secure with masking tape.

Return to the machine and run the tack-down stitch. After securing, remove the masking tape and trim the excess fabric.

Place the tricoline (comb) over the upper marking, secure with masking tape, and repeat Step 20.

Embroider the next 8 colors for the hen and rooster.

For the chick, embroider 4 colors.

Embroidering sequence for the HEN and ROOSTER:
Support/wing/ruffle details, black eyes, comb and wattle details, white eye details, wattle finishing, black eye details, beak, wing finishing.

Embroidering sequence for the CHICK (four colors):
Support details, little arms, beak, cheeks, black eyes, white eye detail.

Overlap the two ends of the satin ribbon (right side to wrong side) as shown in the photo below, forming a loop.

On the back side of the hoop, center the satin ribbon over the marking made in Step 04 of Step 01, following the horizontal and vertical stitch lines.

Secure with masking tape, keeping some distance from the head appliqué, as we do not want the finishing stitch to catch the satin ribbon in the final step.

Still on the back side of the hoop, place the tricoline (lining) over the first rectangular marking made in Step 01 and secure the edges with masking tape.

Return to the machine, run the lining tack-down stitch and the support opening marking. After securing, remove from the machine.

Trim the excess fabric from the sides. Be careful not to cut the satin ribbon. Do not remove the masking tape holding the satin ribbon.

Secure the satin ribbon a little away from the appliqué so it will not be caught in the finishing stitch that will be done in Step 03.

Follow the next finishing sequences, always changing the bobbin thread to match the fill color of each appliqué.

First: support finishing
Second: body finishing

Third: head finishing

Fourth: comb finishing

First: support finishing
Second: body finishing
Third: finishing of both eggshell parts

After completing the finishing stitches, remove the hoop from the machine, remove the stabilizer, and clean up the embroidery.

AND THAT’S IT.

We have completed our project.
