Recommended stabilizer type for use with turned edge, glue stick method of appliqué used with Apliquick Tools. This specific type of stabilizer has tiny fusible dots on 1-side
This lightweight interfacing has one side that irons onto your fabric for ease of cutting the desired shape. It is used for the Apliquick method of applique. (Oh, so very easy!)
Works as a template and stabilizes the fabric for turned-edge applique. Soft and light-weight, it stays in the work – no need to remove!
The appliqué shape is easily traced onto this material, cut out, and ironed onto the wrong side of the fabric. Use with Apliquick rods and glue stick to easily and precisely turn under the seam allowance.
LARGER SIZE INTERFACING! APLIQUICK is a patented technology and a registered trademark, which originates from Spain.
Sylvia Pippen uses the Apliquick tools and interfacing -"It is very easy to turn applique edges over the stabilizer using the Apliquick Tools and a water-soluble glue baste. The stabilizer stays in and adds dimension to your appliqué. This method can be used for hand or machine appliqué to preform appliqué shapes."

You just leave it in for bed quilts or art quilts. It's a light weight stabilizer is all. The glue you use washes out. I trimmed the backing from a block (that I appliqued a cardinal on top of) to see if it could be removed if you wanted. I was able to peel it back and remove it except in the seam lines but I don't feel like I will need to do that. It will just add a nice stabilization so that the quilting will have extra definition.
Use a fine point sharpie marker or soft pencil to make your pattern lines directly onto the shiny fusible side. "No need to use the mirror image!!!"
Draw each required shape. Cut out of foundation paper directly on your line. Iron on to the wrong side of your fabric. Cut shape out of fabric with approximate 3/16 seam allowance. Lightly glue the inside edges and use your turning rods to press over the foundation paper for a PERFECT finished shape ready to applique to your background. Washable and dry cleanable. Leaves a very soft light weight woven interfacing.
