ABSTRACT:
A method for making applique elements without the need for a light box, and without the need for tracing outlines of the applique elements onto the applique fabric materials. A pre-printed paper sheet is provided having outlines of the applique elements printed thereon in non-transferable ink. The back surface of the paper sheet is coated with a low softening temperature coating, such as a wax or a polymeric coating having a low heat softening temperature to releasably attach the cut, printed applique elements to the back of the applique fabric material. The applique elements are cut from the sheet of applique material and are releasably adhered to the back or wrong side of the applique fabric by pressing with a warm iron. An adhesive coating is applied to the seam allowance and to the peripheral edge of the template, and applique elements are cut from the applique material sheet together with the seam allowance, which is then folded over the template edge to adhere the seam allowance to the template. The applique elements can then be attached to the desired base material in the usual manner.
