The paper comes out of the appliqué pieces only when you are ready to stitch and then it is easy to pop it out. Until you're ready to stitch, the paper stays in to keep the piece stable and easily stored.
Hi Brenda, I am using a travel ironing board from Omnigrid, but any small ironing board will work. If you're looking to make one, you can layer batting onto a hard surface, and top it all with a heat reflective fabric (often available at your local fabric store).
When working with applique that will be layered with other pieces, we only turn over the portions of the piece that will not be under another piece. If you're referring to the two ears I didn't turn in the video, they were not forgotten, but turning them in the video would have just been repetitive instead of instructive.
Muchas gracias! I switched iron types not to long ago and now use the Clover Wedge Iron. Here is a link to what it looks like on Amazon. You can find the wedge irons a little more easily than the iron I was using in the video and the wedge iron is easier on your wrists over time. I hope this helps! www.amazon.com/Clover-CLO9200-Wedge-Iron/dp/B015NXHQRS/ref=asc_df_B015NXHQRS/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=167164505512&hvpos=1o1&hvnetw=g&hvrand=9218798139615343107&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9030220&hvtargid=pla-306365104264&psc=1
where can I buy this needle? I have small iron by clover, but I never use it because it's to close to my finger. I am always afraid to burn. this will solve my problem. thanks.
Hello. I'm from Russia. I do not understand the speech, but I'm watching the video carefully. If possible, leave a comment. How do you moisten the fabric?
Trolley needles are available from my website if you like. www.swanamity.com I have changed my mind about irons and now suggest The Clover Wedge Iron iron instead. Happy quilting!
They are available on Amazon, but I now suggest that Quilters use the Oliso mini for applique. The original iron in the video puts your shoulder in an awkward position that can create issues over time.
@@annlittle6193 the board will eventually build up starch and discoloration. I replace the cover of my travel ironing board every couple years due to the volume of applique I usually do, but using a washable cover is an excellent choice.
After you have turned the seam allowance, you lift the edge of the seam and pull the freezer paper out of the piece. It will hold its shape. If you watch some of my other videos, you will see me remove the paper to add a lining fabric.
Excellent tutorial, and great camera work. Thank you!
Just so relaxing watching you demo this-reminded me of Bob Ross❤
What a lovely compliment, Penny! Thank you. ❤️
Oh my goodness! I've never heard of a trolley needle before! This is going to revolutionise my appliqué!
They really make a difference!
Great tip, circling with the iron!
YOU DIDNG TAKE THE PAPER OFF HOW DOES THAT WORK

trolley needle! brilliant! what are you using as an ironing surface? I was using a drafting board with a towel, but the towel has too much texture.

Do you leave the freezer paper as you stitched the applique on?
You remove the freezer paper before you pin each piece on and stitch down. ❤️
You forgot to finish these piece

У нас в России практически нет информации про бумагу для замораживания в аппликациях. Вы ее потом удаляете?

Thank you for watching. Please feel free to direct any questions you have to me. I am moistening the fabric with a liquid starch in this video.
Where can I get a trolley needle and small iron like that? I am just getting started.

Where did you get that iron you used

What do you have under the pieces that you can both paint on and iron on?
The surface is a travel ironing board. :)
@@SwanAmity Do you ever need to clean or wash the board?

@@SwanAmity Thanks for such a quick reply !
What is the needle? Couldn't understand what was said.
slbram17 It is a Trolley Needle. I use it to turn the fabric over and keep my fingers out of the way of the iron while I do it.
slbram17 You can find a Trolley Needle on my website on the Tools Page if you are interested in trying one out.

thank you so much for your fast reply....new to me
slbram17 You are so welcome. :)
We in Russia have almost no information about paper for freezing in applications. Do you then delete it?
After you have turned the seam allowance, you lift the edge of the seam
and pull the freezer paper out of the piece. It will hold its shape.
If you watch some of my other videos, you will see me remove the paper
to add a lining fabric.
where would you buy a trolley needle?
Trolley needles are available from my website if you like. www.swanamity.com Trolley needles are listed on the tools page.
Are you leaving the freezer paper on and appliquéing it with the paper in there.?
@@kaycurrier6539 You remove the freezer paper right before you applique.
SEXY!
