What method did you use for your needle turn?

I used sort of a back basting technique, except I trace the design to both sides of my block with a water soluble pen. I hate using pins and I hate using the iron for template methods. I soak the blue marks out immediately after each block is made, let dry, then press. I've never had a problem with the blue marker doing it this way. Thank you for the wonderful comments.

Just goes to prove that, when used with imagination, there is really no ugly fabric. I have done some of Pat Campbell's Jacobean applique and yours is truly fabulous.
