You're going to love working with the wool!. If you do it
by hand, it's like pulling a needle through butter. I have been trying to put a pic of mine on the forum but can't seem to do it. It's the most enjoyable applique I've ever done. I trace the applique pieces onto freezer paper, then iron it on the wool, and cut it out. By using the freezer
paper you are assured of nice crisp lines. Also, I use
sequin pins rather than regular straight pins, as they are
smaller and you're less likely to get hung up on them.
