Patti, I am going to try to remember how I did this. I believe she had me sew the fusible to the right side of the appliqué fabric, all around, trim croners and what not then cut a slit in the fusible and turn the shape inside out to expose the right side of the fabric for the appliqué shape, at that point, you have the edges sewn under with the fusible and you just fuse it down and so whatever stitching you like. She even suggests putting batting in for a dimensional look, somebody who is more graceful than me would do a better job, I found it hard to turn the little pieces with sharp points , like leaves, inside out without getting frustrated, lol, but it is a nice look. Hope I made sense :oops: :roll:
