:-) HAs anyone used the pre-cut appliques pices - you can buy them in quilting catalogs.
I would like to buy a pack of pre-cut applique shapes to use on children's giveaway quilts - doing the fusible and machine edge stitching. How do you get the fusible on the pre-cut shape? Usually when you use fusible, the design in penciled onto the paper, fusible then it put on the back of the fabric, when bonded the shape is cut out. How on earth do you do fusible and prec-uts?
Sure would be interested in knowing. would save alot of time, and get multiple print fabrics in the pre-cuts.
Thanks for help

I THOUGHT I seen here in the classified section someone was selling applique cutouts that already had fusible on the back of them. I could be wrong about it, I have spelt since then. But maybe check there to see.

Take the applique and trace onto the fusible paper then cut out your shape inside of the trace line so it's a bit smaller and you won't get the stuff on the iron. Then iron your fusible shape onto the back of your applique

Definitly protect your iron with frezer paper or an applieque sheet. Makes a big difference, ask me how i know ;)
PS - that is a great way to add interest to a quilt quilkly without having to do all the steps yourself.
