1. Set up your Memory Craft for Professional Style embroidery.
2. The arrangement of the flowers was created using Memory Card #119 (Australian Flowers). Design #5, #8, #9, #13, #22, #27 and #28 were used for the flower arrangement.

1. To layout your design place the templates for each design on the fabric and arrange as desired. Mark the crosshairs for each design using a fabric marking pen.
   Hint: While the templates are arranged make a note referencing the order they should be embroidered in. If you have any large gaps once the embroidery is completed simply fill in with smaller flowers.
2. Use the Clothsetter to perfectly position fabric. Attach the embroidery hoop to the machine. Stitch.
3. Sew beads to the vase in even intervals along the pintucks.
4. Have your work of art framed and enjoy in your home.
