Cut Fabrics
To make the best use of your fabrics, cut pieces in the following order. Cut sashing strips lengthwise (parallel to the selvage). (Download project pdf for appliqué patterns.)
To use fusible web for appliquéing, complete the following steps.
1. Lay fusible web, paper side up, over patterns A and B. Use a pencil to trace each pattern 16 times, leaving 1/2" between tracings. Cut out each fusible-web shape roughly 1/4" outside the traced lines.
2. Following the manufacturer’s instructions, press fusible-web shapes onto backs of designated fabrics; let cool. Cut out fabric shapes on drawn lines and peel off paper backings.
