you use the freezer paper to adhere the fabric , you then fold over the seam allowance of the fabricto press it flat--you them remove the freezer paper and your applique is ready for HAND SEWING. Fusible webis where you press the fusible to the reverse side of the fabric--cut out your design and then you remove the paper. You will then press your cut out design onto your fabric and either hand stitch or machine around the design. You can also just leave it be if it is not going to be handled much. hope this helps, Anne
