Default Anyone use the Appliquick for applique?

My guild had a demo on the Appliquick method. I bought the starter pack that included the two long tools, glue stick and fusible. I tried the method this morning. I like it a lot. My pieces have smooth even edges. I made 1/2 circles and they are perfect and took no time at all to make a dozen. The fusible is very lightweight, can't really tell it's there.

Is the fusible available at quilt shops or does it have to be ordered?

It was demoed by a quilt shop so any shop that carries the Appliquick products will have it.

Looks like a fantastic way to do applique.

If you are paid member of "The Quilt Show," you can get 30% off the tools. I'm still sitting on the fence. It looks like a great method.

I just recently purchased the tools with my 30% coupon but have not yet used them. I am getting ready to make a Mommy & Me crib quilt so I plan to get my feet wet on that project. I saw the video on The Quilt Show a while back and she makes it look so easy.

I use the fusible and love it. It goes through my inkjet printer so saves time. I ordered from Amazon. Haven't bought the tools - use orange sticks and toothpicks - works for me and the price is right.

I was wondering if, or how, you remove the fusible product

I don't remove it. I tired many different tools to compare since I had the rods. Nothing I tried worked better then the rods. I even tried the seafood tools some said worked. The rods are hefty and that makes a difference.

I just ordered the two long tools, and the smaller scissors...........Can I tell you the scissors would be worth the purchase at twice the price? If you do machine embroidery, or "in the hoop" applique, you will never have another pair of scissors that lets you trim as close or as accurately! I have just ordered a second pair............
