To felt your own wool, machine-wash it in a hot-water-wash, cool-rinse cycle with a small amount of detergent. Machine-dry it on high heat and steam-press.
To use freezer paper to prepare appliqué pieces, complete the following steps.
1. Lay freezer paper, shiny side down, over patterns. Use a pencil to trace each pattern the number of times indicated in cutting instructions, leaving 1/4" between tracings. Cut out each freezer-paper shape on drawn lines.
2. Using a hot dry iron, press each freezer-paper shape, shiny side down, onto right side of designated cotton or wool; let cool.
3. Cut out cotton shapes, adding a 1/4" seam allowance beyond drawn lines. Cut out wool shapes on drawn lines. Peel off freezer paper from all pieces.
