also, as far as applying heat, do you apply from only the patch side or does anyone flip the piece over and apply the heat from the other side?

the reason I'm asking bunches of questions is I have a pieced top I want to add flowers to and in the past my luck with fusibles has not been good. I will be stitching around the flowers but I don't want them to be stiff.

If the fusible is being stubborn, I iron it on from both sides, and check to see if it is bonded, but ONLY after it is cooled off :wink: If you try and peel it while it is still hot or warm, it will not adhere correctly :D:D:D
