I went to Paducah this year with a group of 12 other women, and one of them has used it before and loves it. So I bought some and just tried it. It was wonderful! I loved it. I love invisible machine applique except for the ripping out of the paper - so this solved that problem! It is very soft after you wash it and can't tell it was ever there. I had a tad of of trouble getting the fabric to stick to the paper with the glue stick, but not that it was a problem or trouble. It just didn't stick as easy as regular paper. I found putting the glue stick on the fabric instead of the paper helped some. <BR/><BR/>If you want to see the quilt I used it on go here:<BR/>http://dquilts.blogspot.com/2006/08/as-time-flies-by.html<BR/><BR/>It is the pomegranate one right at the top of the post.Quilts And Pieceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02043640520513261597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18199660.post-1156450380228983732006-08-24T14:13:00.000-06:002006-08-24T14:13:00.000-06:00This is such a beautiful quilt.

I like the idea of appliquing a silhouette, but I guess I would put it on something with a more plainer, simpler quilt.<BR/>But it is your quilt, and you should do what makes you happy.Shelinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09870112367076954109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18199660.post-1155512944529375782006-08-13T17:49:00.000-06:002006-08-13T17:49:00.000-06:00Why?

(The unquilted applique only works with small pieces - IMHO & I am pictureing a big silouhette.)<BR/><BR/>Don't worry that you "lose" the wow up close.... When you do the "Tadah" people will be far enough away to see what you accomplished!<BR/><BR/>When you/they look at it up clse, it is to see the fabrics (or points/intersections), not the design.The Calico Cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06319271181930512880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18199660.post-1155272355251842962006-08-10T22:59:00.000-06:002006-08-10T22:59:00.000-06:00very pretty fabric!

Otherwise it will look puffy and baggy compared to the rest of the quilt. One of my pet peves is to see a beautiful quilt at a quilt show that is quilted beautifully in most places, but is way too lightly quilted in others. Makes it look very unfinished. A quilt needs to have a balanced amount of quilting across the entire quilt. I know it seems easier to do the applique after the quilting, but I just don't think you'd like how it looks.Pattihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07125491177774966237noreply@blogger.com
