I’ve found that this is a fun and personal way to decorate quilts. It is meant to be somewhat whimsical so don’t worry about perfection. Plus there is no need to reverse the letters while using the fusible web. The technique is easy, but I do recommend practicing first before working on your fabric.  \nYou can either write the words yourself or copy a favorite computer font.  \nFirst you will need to decide how large your letters can be. This will depend on the size of your finished piece and how much you want to write.  \n3  \nWrite the words yourself  \n• Make a guide using freezer paper and a ruler. With a dark Sharpie marker draw a base line, a top line, and a middle line (if necessary) .  \n• Lay scrap paper on top and practice writing your words to fit in the lines. Using cursive writing is a bit easier because the letters are connected. However manuscript printing will work if you make the letters touch each other. Printing individual letters will necessitate a bit more cutting.  \n• After you’ve written a word, go over the writing again elongating and making the letters thicker and more‘fancy’. Do this several times until you have an example which you like.  \n• Use a Sharpie marker to trace over the word on freezer paper to make the letters wider and make inside circles for o’s, e’s and other  \nloopy letters.  \n4  \nUse a computer font  \n• Search through fonts on your computer. Remember you will be cutting the letters out with scissors so a basic or simple font might be best.  \n• Enlarge the letters to make them fit your composition. Print an example to check the size.  \n• If you are making several words it’s easier if you hook the letters together in each word.  \n• Print the letters to make a master copy.  \n5  \nMaking letter templates:  \n• Using freezer paper trace around the word or individual letters.  \n• Roughly cut around the word leaving ¼” around each outside line.  \nPrepare the Lettering Fabric:  \n• Following manufacturer’s directions, apply fusible web to the wrong side of your chosen lettering fabric.  \n 6  \nPlace your fused fabric right side up on the ironing surface and lay your freezer paper words on top.  \nUse a dry iron to stick the freezer paper to the right side of the fabric. This should only take a few seconds.  \nCarefully cut out the words with sharp scissors.  \nDon’t cut across any letter but pinch to cut out inside spaces.  \n7  \nArrange the words on the quilt top making sure to leave an inch or so from the outside edges. Following manufacturer’s directions, fuse the letters or words onto the top.  \nThe wording is temporary and will need to be stitched down.  \n• I like to use a buttonhole stitch if there are only a few letters to stitch down.  \n• If there are words, I usually drop the feed dogs and free motion stitch around each letter or word.  \nI hope you enjoy adding words to your quilts!  \n8","cbCaillHlz1oQZtZ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaillHlz1oQZtZ","pdf",1592647,8,"English","# Creating large word appliqué\n## Choosing size and lettering style\n## Making templates and applying fusible web\n## Cutting, arranging, and stitching words","[{\"question\":\"Why use fusible web appliqué for large quilt words?\",\"answer\":\"Paint and fabric markers may not work well for large letters.
