wonder under is sold at walmarts that have a fabric dept. I forgot to look while I was was at the LQS and walmart is the last stop in town for me. It was fairly cheap-although I don't remember how much. I zig-zagged him. I have friends who buy a ton of the cutest applique patterns (the latest being adorable kid tractors) and then works on them all the time. I wasn't sure that I would keep up with it, so I bought a yard of the wonder under (that would do a bunch) and printed up a color book page from the internet and let out all the small details....like his broom. My friends also use a bunch of other stitches. I figured I should start small.
