Prepare Embroidery:

1. Included in this projectis a video on how the design for the back of the shirt was created. 2. The main design on the back of the shirt was created using Floriani Total Control software
and Floriani’s new Rainbow software. Floriani’s Rainbow software is a Stand Alone piece of
software which means you don’t need any other software to use it!! It is currently on sale
through your local Floriani Dealer. Floriani Rainbow includes all the features of Floriani

Creative Express as well. Here is further

3. The design was first digitized using Floriani Total Control software using artwork that is
included in the software. The artwork is found in the “backdrops library”. The icon for the
“backdrops library” is located on the top toolbar, about 2/3rds of the way to the right.I
made the design


4. Once the design is digitized and then
selected, I opened the Rainbow and
started creating my color theme.


5. Floriani Rainbow software allows you to
change the colorways of any existing
design with a couple of clicks. So much
fun! In the software there are premade
color “themes” or you can make your
own color theme. I made a USA color
theme for this design.




6. To create the USA Applique Font, I used
the “Applique Bean” font in Total
Control Software. The Applique Bean
font is designed to be a raw edge
applique as there is no satin or blanket
finish stitch around the outside edge.
There is a video included in this project
on how to add the satin stitch to the
edge of the USA applique.
