I cannot imagine a multilayer applique project being easy.

Just a quick question were you sewing the flower onto a single piece of fabric, or the quilt sandwich, or did you use stabilizer (tear away or wash away) to keep it firm?
Sorry I should have noted this is NOT my work - I just wanted to post a sample of what it SHOULD look like! My example looks terrible, trust me.

The way it is instructed on the sheet, you sew the first *largest* rose to a 9.5" square of fabric only, not sandwich. I didn't use stabilizer, just a quick dash of spray adhesive. Essentially it is sewing just 2 pieces of fabric together...wouldn't seem like the biggest deal, right? Maybe wash-away stabilizer is the thing to use?
