So you could slit the back, pull the paper out, it would likely be just fine. I can't remember if she whip stitched it closed, I likely would,
Don't you think just slitting the backing fabric on which the things are appliqued, the pulling the paper out from that slit? After the paper is out, slip a piece of one-sided-bond interfacing in facing the slit and iron it shut.
Very cool idea to slip in a piece of bond interfacing, thank you a bunch of quilting hugs.
