Thanks, amma, for a great tute! Have never used glue b4, but will try it.
Thanks, mamagus, also for your technique too! Will try that also.
Just FYI, or if anyone is interested, there's a product out specifically for gluing applique pieces with an elongated tip by Roxanne called "Roxanne's Applique Glue." It's a refillable bottle so when you run out, you can always replace it with Elmer's or SoHo, another great fabric glue. I like to use Alene's Tacky Glue. It's great for fabrics! :-) :-)
They give great tips on using the glue and preventing the glue in the applicator tip to dry by blowing out the glue @ this link:
