Ok folks - so the DS showed up yesterday with a belated birthday present (poor boy - had been in Hawaii for almost 4 weeks on business :mrgreen: ).

He had been to a local quilt shop down in RI and bought me a kit. It is wool applique - really neat!!

It has some pretty small pieces - which I am concerned about fraying after cutting. It suggests using steam a seam 2 and then fray check after cutting it out!!

I was thinking about using the very light stabilizer that we use in knits before the steam a seam and instead of the fray check? My thoughts on fray check are that projects that I have used it on are "crusty" and or hard.

Anyone else done anything like this? OR any thoughts from those of you who have used wool?
