3 Instructions Two Hearts 14 x 18 placemat Look for a machine embroidery applique design available at under Party with Patrick embroideries. It can t be used to make this project but is perfect for making matching napkins, etc. 1. Refer to the cutting and heart appliqué page for cutting instructions. 2. Trace the templates onto the paper side of your fusible adhesive leaving approximately ½ between tracings. Trace the dashed stitching and placement lines also, if desired. 3. Roughly cut the templates from the adhesive just outside of the traced line. 4. Place the adhesive templates onto the wrong side of their corresponding appliqué fabrics and fuse in place according to manufacturer s instructions. 5. Neatly cut the appliqués from the fabrics on the traced template lines. 6. Transfer the dashed stitching lines to the right side of the heart fabric and placement lines on other appliqué pieces with a non-permanent pen or pencil, if desired. You can use a light table or daylit window. 7. Peel the paper backing from the appliqués and arrange them on the background piece. It s helpful to use a straight-edge to align the ribbon appliqués. Fuse appliqués into place. 8. Place the Sulky Tear-Easy stabilizer behind the appliqué sections and satin stitch the raw edges of the appliqués, using Sulky Premium 40 wt rayon thread. 9. Sandwich batting between top and backing with wrong sides of fabrics against batting. 10. Quilt as desired. I used a straight stitch, in matching thread, around each appliqué satin stitching and next to binding. I quilted the piece using a fairly dense stippling/meander stitch except in the heart area, which I left unquilted. 11. Bind as usual, using the 2¼ strips cut from the binding fabric.
