Appliqué - Lining Light Colored Shapes |
Step-by-Step Instructions...
When fusing light-colored appliqué shapes to darker shapes below, sometimes the darker fabric will show through, detracting from the appearance of the appliqué. To prevent this:
| Trace template shape needed of the light-colored appliqué fabric onto paper side of paper-backed fusible web. Cut out, leaving small margin beyond drawn lines. Cut a piece of white solid lining fabric slightly larger than the traced fusible web piece. Cut 2nd piece of fusible web slightly larger than the white solid piece. Cut a piece of the light-colored appliqué fabric slightly larger than the 2nd fusible web piece. |  |
 |
Fuse the larger, untraced piece of fusible web to wrong side of light-colored appliqué fabric. Remove paper backing. |
| Fuse white solid fabric piece to wrong side of light-colored fabric, protecting iron with parchment paper or Teflon® pressing sheet. |
 |
 |
Fuse smaller, traced piece of fusible web to wrong side of white solid fabric (again, protecting iron). |
| Cut out shape on marked lines. Remove paper backing. |  |
 |
Your lined appliqué shape is ready to fuse to the quilt! |
