I'm not sure I understand how you use this product in hand applique.

You would print out the shapes and then cut on the lines, right? Then you press them to the wrong side of the fabric and cut around the shape, leaving a turn-under allowance?

If I have that right, then my next question is what advantage does it give you when you're sewing the piece to the background? Is it stiff enough that it gives you a "solid" edge to turn the fabric against?

Is it also stiff enough so that you could then press the seam allowance to the back of the piece? If so, this might be just the thing for me.
