Bev, I use Wonder Under, fusible web. I have had better luck with it than the Steam A Seam.

Bevanger, I called Bounce Fabric Company and they do not recommend using fabric softener sheets for applique. They said that the chemicals on the sheets could change the color of the fabric after continued contact with their product. I don't know if that is still true if you wash the sheets or not.
