3. stitch around circle, yes ALL the way around
4. on wrong side, I cut a small slit ( careful not to cut the desired fabric
5. clip edges
6. birth circle thru slit
7. press right side of fabric
8. applique or whip stitch to desired area
Nice round edges....
I made an entire quilt using this method
This is the way Eleanor Burns does it, but she uses fusible as the second fabric. Then she irons it in place before she sews it down. Works great.
