FAQs
Are these appliques already attached to a backing fabric?
No, the appliques are separate pieces designed to be hand-sewn onto your chosen fabric.
How large are the Naomi Appliques?
Please refer to the product's specific dimensions, typically found in the detailed product listing, for exact sizing.
Can I cut the appliques to change their shape?
It is not recommended to cut the appliques, as this can unravel the embroidery and beadwork, and compromise the integrity of the design.
What is the best way to attach these to tulle?
Use small, tight stitches that go through the tulle of the applique and the base fabric. Avoid pulling too tightly to prevent puckering.
Can I iron the appliques?
No, direct heat can damage the beads and embroidery. Always use a pressing cloth and low heat if ironing the surrounding fabric, and avoid ironing directly over the appliques.
How many appliques are included in a pair?
A pair includes two appliques that are mirror images of each other.
Troubleshooting
Beads or sequins feel loose
Gently reinforce the stitching around the loose embellishment using a fine needle and matching thread.
Applique does not lay flat
Ensure the base fabric is smooth and taut before applying. You may need to add a few extra anchoring stitches along the edges or inner curves.
Thread is visible and detracting from the design
Use a fine, high-quality thread that closely matches the color of the applique's tulle or embroidery. Practice stitching on a scrap piece to achieve an invisible finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These appliques are designed to be hand-sewn onto fabric. Carefully position the appliques on your garment and use a strong, fine thread to stitch them in place, working through the tulle and around the embellishments. Ensure the stitches are secure but do not pull too tightly, which could distort the applique.
Compatibility: The appliques are best suited for use on fabrics like satin, silk, chiffon, and tulle. Ensure the base fabric can support the weight of the beads and embroidery. Avoid applying to very delicate or loosely woven fabrics without reinforcement.
Care: Handle with care to prevent bead or sequin loss. Spot clean only using a soft, damp cloth. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents, as this can damage the delicate embroidery and beading. Store flat in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
