Picture won't open for me either. Is it a long skinny 1/4 inch piece? If so a bias strip without freezer paper is probably the way to go. If it is a short 1/4 inch piece traditional needle turn appliqué may be necessary. Try it with a scant 1/8 turn under.
Can you mix fusible appliqué and freezer paper appliqué? Sure it is your project. You also may be able to draw in a small piece with fabric paint/markers or thread paint it in.
