I just finished LA a quilt (being bound by someone else so no pictures yet) that had appliqued flowers on the top--we (guild project) used fusible (misty fuse and french fuse both as we went through a lot!) to turn under the edges and with the Misty Fuse, attach to the quilt. With the ones that did not have a double sided fusing, I simply used a dap of washable glue stick to attach to the quilt. Then all the machine applique was done on the long arm--very time consuming but worked fine. Check out Kris Viera's website--she's won awards on a couple of quilts that are all fused as pieces using glue.

This lovely lady was the speaker at our Guild meeting this morning. Now I feel like a total under achiever. Her quilts are beyond beautiful. I'm going to get her book and some of the fusible and see if I can create something beautiful.
