I put a dot of washable glue stick to hold it in place. right side of fabric facing up. Place #2 fabric right side down over #1. I finger hold and flip over and sew on printed line.

I suppose I have confused many, but maybe helped a couple :?:
Thanks Jerrie, I need all the help I can get.

Has anyone used the scribble pad paper to paper piece? I used this on my string blocks and the paper tore off really easily. It will go through the printer if cut to 8 1/2 x 11.

Thanks for the hints everyone!
