How applique silk/satin to poplin without scrunching???
Am making new regalia and want to applique satin flames to a poplin base. Never have appliqued before and am a bit nervous as to how to do it without it crunching and looking like a two year old sewed it. It's for a very formal occasion and it has to look really nice. Anyone help??????????????
If you are machine applique-ing, iron your satin onto an interfacing and then cut the flames. If you are hand applique-ing, you can cut your flames from the interfacing, iron it on, and then cut your satin with a quarter inch seam allowance all around. Does not have to be precise because you are folding it under. Try this and your satin will behave.
