This is the first project our ward quilt group attempted. It was also my first applique project. I used freezer paper, from which I cut out templates, then ironed them to the right side of my fabric. I then cut the pieces out, leaving a 1/4" allowance. I left the freezer paper on the front of the pieces, pinned them to the right spot, and tucked the seam allowance under as I appliqued. It worked pretty well for larger pieces, but I had trouble with the smaller pieces. I have since learned several other applique techniques that work a little better for me.
