There is a new version of this tutorial HERE.
 |
start with fabric for your applique and a template or pattern for the applique. |
|
this step is optional, but recommended.
Pellon makes a product called WonderUnder. it looks kind of like wax paper. it's going to make it so we can iron on the applique onto the skirt/purse/whatever. it makes it easier and more durable. |
 |
use the template to cut your shape out of the WonderUnder. |
|
feeling a little lost? check out the sewing basics or post a question in the forum.
 |
iron the WonderUnder piece onto your applique fabric (paper side up).
cut around the shape and peel the paper backing off. |
|
place the applique onto your skirt/bag/whatever.
press with a hot iron according to the WonderUnder directions. |
