I completed the jellybeans as stated above. I hooped a stabilizer, ran the placement line. Used Elmer glue stick and placed jellybean in placement line then ran the highlight stitch. Carefully tore the highlight off and used the same stabilizer 5 or 6 times just by moving design on screen.
Idid not want to do raw edge Applique as I know it will be washed often. I tried facing and turning like I did jellybeans, but that was a joke.
Thanks everyone for well healing wishes. I dread therapy afterwards but I want use of my arm again for this craft we all love so much!
