thanks for any tips and encouragement you can send my way.

All of the above. I used freezer paper in the beginning because it made it easier for me to not have the applique buckle. Now all I need is a line and a seam allowance...and lots of time and practice.

I found Ellie Sienckewicz's book "12 Easy Ways to Applique" a great way to learn.
