Applique...
Today I attempted some applique and I really enjoyed it. The hardest part for me was drawing the horse, I'm not the best drawer. I'm very happy with how it turned out, but is it possible to applique on the sewing machine? It would save a lot of time.
I do lazy applique (I use vliesofix to iron on the patch and then stitch around the outside with the machine). It might be cheating but I don't have the patience to do it by hand!
Yup, I'm with CurlyPops. I use Pellon Wonder-Under to fuse the applique and then machine stitch the outside (with zig-zag or blanket stitch). Easy-peasey!
