It is so cute. You will enjoy it so.

Did you put fusible on the back of the appliques. There is a thing called windowing. You cut out the center part of the fusible so that there is a quarter inch line of fusible on the applique and nothing in the center. Then if you have to put a second piece of applique in the center of the first, it doesn't get so thick.
