The body of this cat is slightly stuffed, giving it a nice 3 dimensional look. Use your favorite applique method. If you want to hem under the edges, add 1/4" around all pieces. For an easier
method, use our Fusible Web to quickly and easily attach pieces, then use paint, hand or machine stitching
to further secure the edges. I recommend satin stitching.

For more information on using fusible web (also called iron on adhesive), go to: Free Applique Instruction.
Applique Pressing Sheet Pieces will stick to one another - not to the sheet. Very nice for making
appliques. For more instruction on using these sheets, go to: Free Floral Applique Pattern
Go to our NOTIONS page to see samples of these items, or to purchase these items.
Spray Starch: to stiffen pieces - helps when sewing them into place. This is only needed if you are not using iron-on adhesive (fusible web).
Note: all seams are 1/4 inch. Always iron between steps.
Sewing Supplies: scissors, quilting pins, large sewing ruler, fabric marking pencils, seam ripper
hint: quilting pins are easier to use than regular pins; a tupperware box works well as a supply box.
