Cute Cupcake Applique Tutorial is the ideal Beginners project to start your journey in Applique. So if you have never done it before, this is your chance.

Dear Ruth, thank you so much for your comment. No need to take the design out of the hoop:-)
The hoop can be detached from the machine to make it a bit easier to cut away the fabric, but the hooped fabric stays in the hoop until the design is completely stitched. Happy stitching! Annemarie
