You can either burn/melt the cut outs or cut them. I've used freezer paper to make crazy complex quilting motifs as it temp. fuses to the fabric to allow me to trace the motif for quilting. Gently pulling it off to reposition means I can use one paper "cut " for entire quilt. Easy peasy. ------ Brother Innovis NX650Q; Brother Nouvelle 1500; Brother CS6000i; Brother 1034D

Just cut out your design, stick it on the quilt, quilt around it and then move to the next block ------ Too much fabric to count...
