These look great, and the paint makes it easier and much faster than stitching around the appliques...good idea. Even non-sewers can have appliqued projects. :thumbup:

I made my mother some t-shirts using my appliques years ago and she even throws them in the washer.....she still wears them and they look good.......but still I would hand wash them.
