The Quilt Show demo on freezer paper appliqué , need a refresher
 
On the Row By Row site I watched when they featured The Quilt Show episode that discussed Row By Row.
The second half of that show explained an easy method of appliqué, especially for letters, that you wouldn't have to reverse the printed letters, etc.
Does anyone remember how that was done? If so, please explain.

I'm not interested in the traditional freezer paper appliqué method.

Thanks.
Teri

Let's see how well I can remember :o.....
Step 1. Iron Heat&Bond to the back of the fabric. Put aside.
Step 2. Trace the letters on Freezer paper. Cut out.
Step 3. Iron letters to the front of the fabric in Step 1.
Step 4. Cut out, remove backing paper from the back, and iron to your background fabric.
Step 5. Remove the Freezer paper and you are done.:thumbup:

HTH:o

ETA: You don't have to reverse the lettering when done in this way. Just write the word as you normally would Left to Right, cut out, and iron the front. Much easier than having to think in reverse:D

If you're ever printing your own letters from a printer, select 'Mirror Image' as an option and they will print in reverse, ready to copy. :)

Thank you so much! I thought this method was ingenious!!
