Please be patient with me I have a lot o' picts for this tute, I'll probably have ta post 'em in several different posts. I put a star on the back & Tx on the front of a pot holder. Most o' this tute will focus on the star but I will show a few o' the TX also.
(Mental note: Don't ever Satin Stitch through 5 layers o' fabric & 2 washrags again!)
(1) Cut out the shape out o' the freezer paper.
(2) Press it ta the wrong side of the fabric.

(5) Use either Roxanne's Basting Glue or Washable (as in water soluble) School Glue. I actually have the school glue in an old Roxanne's bottle. Put tiny drops o' glue in several places o' the seam allowance.

When i printed the TX I forgot ta do it mirror image, so I thought I'd show how ta do it on the right side o' the fabric.
(11) Iron the shape onto the right side o' the paper, & cut out around it about 1/4" all around.
