It's "HeatBond Lite" that I'm using. I'm just feeling defeated over this. I have so much going on in my personal life and I was making this to sell because we really need the money (hubby is on dialysis and currently unable to work), so it left me in tears when it didn't work. I guess this is my first try at FMQ on applique. I usually do blanket stitching by hand or other detailed work by hand over applique. Sadly right now I can't put out any money for a different option. I tried changing the needle to a quilting needle and that didn't make any difference. Thanks for the suggestions, I appreciate you all taking the time to answer.
