Well, I'm new to this method, so not sure. Here is my trial leaf. The back edges are glued down with an Elmer's Glue Stick to the freezer paper. If I remove the paper before I sew it down, I think my edges will be ruined. I was wondering also, if there is a different way I should deal with the "V"'s in terms of turning them back, as the way they are, they are essentially raw edges. Any advice for this?
Thank you for all of your help here.
