    reverse machine applique? fuse? How did you get the face image onto the cloth? I love it. I have been experimenting with fusible.

    Hi Melly, Yep, its reverse applique in the case of the face in this piece and applique on the blue background elements... the boundary between reverse and otherwise can get a bit blurred. Fusible keeps everything in place until I've machine quilted and it also tends to stabilise the fabric which gets treated pretty roughly during the cutting phase (there are some teesy tiny bits which would have just disintegrated without the fusible.) cheers Claire
