In the applique class that I am taking, the teacher highly recommends Steam a Seam Lite! She also said to trace the design, and cut out the middle, so you just have a 1/4 inch around the inside edge, to cut down on the stiffness too. It's an extra step, but great results!! :thumbup: :thumbup:
It won't fray if it's a wall hanging, I have washed mine on gentle and it hold up without a problem.
