I've been reviewing how to do reverse applique, and I think I will be able to do it without too many problems. My only concern is that the "ribbon" on the block is so-o-o-o skinny!! If I cut exactly between the lines as they are drawn, I don't think there will be enough fabric to tuck under, and it will fray. :shock: I'm going to follow Lesley's tip and cut the "ribbon" wider than it is drawn on the block so I will have more fabric for the needleturn. ;) Wish me luck!! 8-)
