I used to use tear-away for layered appliques. Right now I'm tring a paper pieced method if using the gridded fusible webbing as a base.
It was easy to trace the pattern on to, using fabric markers, and each section will be fused once it is in place, so it should be nore stable in the seams.
When it's time to embelish my crazy quilt blocks, just iron it down; the stabilizer is already there. I heard about this method from our former member, Cissy, and it makes sense. I am severely challenged when it comes to paper piecing, so anything that makes it easier for me is a boon.
