Despite your best efforts, a fabric print occasionally can end up in undesirable arrangements on a garment. Perhaps the main motif is cut off at a seam in a prominent place or is positioned atop an area that requires no emphasis or creates an unfortunate visual effect. When print motifs are spaced far apart, you also may get an unintended blank space, where the pattern cutting creates a gap in the print. Luckily, poor print placement is an easy cutting mistake to mitigate, because there is nothing to repair; the fix is more like applying a Band-Aid on a boo-boo. As long as you have enough fabric leftover to provide a few full print motifs, you can fix this problem. The solution is applique.
