Afraid to cut this fabric!

I cut the grass in very gentle sloping hills, then lay it on the sky. I applique the grass fabric by using a blanket stitch and varigated or green thread. Cut away the excess sky fabric from the back side, and it will lay nice and flat. If you use a decorative spikey stitch for the applique, it will look like grass blades standing up in the background :wink:

I like your original plan. That is how I do it. You may need to do small clipping and a little persuasive pressing, but with some heavy starch it will look great. Make sure your curves are very smooth.
