Thank you so very much. This group is the best I have ever contacted. That is the panel I have and I appreciated your posting the book instructions. I have never used fusible fleece so didn't know it existed. Quiltbyrd

I'm curious, how did your project turn out?? I have the same panel and clothing for my daughter, but have yet to make it!

There is some really stiff and thick (~1/4") interfacing - (I am not sure what they call it.) I ironed the dolls on to that with Wonder-Under. Then I put flannel on the back of the clothes also with Wonder Under.
I got my iron totally glued up, thank heavens for iron cleaner. I think I read the directions at the time, I am sure they would be more explicit than my memory of what I used.
I would use one of the plastic sheets to iron on.
