I went to this site today, bunnyhill designs and there is a great BOM of appliques there. All the patterns for this are free as long as you do not resell them. Her designs for sale are a bit high but very very cute. I think I am going to give the BOM (seasons) a try, never having appliqued before this could be a challenge and a half. Any tips? I am good with embroidery (at least I think so).. does everyone fuse the designs on the fabric first or just pin? and is embroidering over fusible harder than regular as its thicker? inquiring mind here would love to know
