Default hate starch

Right now I HATE starch of any type. After laying out 27 flowers and leafs on a quilt and appliqueing 4 the rest started to shed some of their petals. Before long at least half of them laid on the floor. Ok so now what? What the heck happened. Ok so after talking with some of you we figured the starch was the problem. I took a very wet cloth and wiped away as much of the starch as I could and then let it dry. Put more Pellon on each piece and then ironed them back on. I have one row down and 4 more to go. Oh no that wasn't the answer, for most of it at least. OK so now what? I am going to soak the background fabric without the flowers and hopefully it will come out enough to stick. Wish me luck!
