    Both these sites are very good. I really like the way this method looks and I will definitely try it. Thanks

    I prefer back basting applique to any of the other methods I've tried. Precision is so easy. I couldn't get the pieces spot-on with other methods. Love it.

    Wow - that is amazing - your letters are fabulous. I am going to try that for wording on a quilt. Very inspiring. Gorgeous.

    Does she also cover hand applique in any of her books?
