i understand, i prefer the look of needle turn and use it whenever possible.
what i don't understand is why you need to use heat n bond for needle turn, if you can cut freeze paper on this machine why aren't you attaching the fabric to the freezer paper and cutting it that way?
or you could use fusible interfacing which is only glued on one side.
i'm not trying to give you a hard time, i'm sorry if its coming off that way.
i'm OCD and there's a thousand ways to do applique and your way might be better and i would like to understand your method.
please forgive my interrogation like posts :oops:
