I used the light weight heat and bond. I wasn't sure it was still good since I had it shoved in a bin for about 10 years, but it's working fine!
Here's the website I used.

Also, if you do a search here, there is a BOM that was done not too long ago with Sunbonnet Sue and there are a ton of links on that too.
My machine has a TON of stitches and also appliques. The stitch I used for the leaves are just a decorator stitch I decided to try and it came out nice. I had gone to Ben Franklins today to get some fabric for the Round Robin and picked up a few cute buttons to embellish with.
