Here is a wonderful site-they aren't free patterns, but many wonderful things! This includes stuffed fruit pin cushions, not applique.

Dodee, if you go to connectingthreads.com and click on 'Kits & Samplers', then click on 'Hot Pads' a set of hot pads with large vegetable prints will come up. Click on 'view kit contents' and the fabric selection will come up.

That's when I love in with patchwork and sometimes applique! Chris
For paper piecing -
The first piece of fabric you lay down is face up!
All the rest are face down!
Once I learned this, my scrambly problems all went away!
