Pie Plate's Tutorial Tuesday 1/25/11 Raw-Edge Applique

[freeangie11]

how do u add the applique to the shirt or whatever after that?

@freeangie11 If you want to add this to a shirt I think it's easiest to just add the flower directly to the shirt.. aka you use your shirt instead of the 'background' fabric :)

Is there a certain type of needle to use so glue from the fusible backing doesn't clog your machine and the needle? Very nice video...thank you!

@montayostudio What I would do is wait a few minutes after ironing the fabric so it cools the glue. Then normally the glue just stays in place. Also the paper helps 'clean' the needle with every stitch :)

hello,

is there any tip to achieve to sew half in the flower and half outside the flower pls?

Thanks for this tutorial

@liesbeth2009 Just make sure your raw edge is in the middle of your sewing foot :) Then the needle will go half in the flower, and half outside of it :)
