Great tip show to vet things done well without fuss. Pretty quilt, love bees, flowers and the message. Thank you 😊!
This was the most helpful video for large applique. Thank you, Lisa!
This is the best raw edge applique tutorial and technique out there! THANK YOU!! I've been using this technique all weekend creating raw edge appliqued panels for table runners!
Lisa, I love your style of teaching. It is as if you are talking to/with the person who is watching your tutorial. Most people 'instruct' as if they are teaching a whole group of people who are on the same learning level, but you seem to make it more personalized. You are instructing on a beginner's level, yet, at the same time it is not boring to those who know quite a bit already. You go into a great deal of detail, yet, in a way that you do not 'linger' to long on each thing/part. Great job! Today is the first day for me to watch you, and I plan to come back and start from your first video to each new one you up-load. BTW Love your design for this quilt ... keep up the good work.
Jo Ann McCraw wow, that is quite a compliment, thank you so much!! I look forward to many more videos, I have some super fun ideas coming up!!
So glad I found and watched this! I’ve got freezer paper from my waterslide decal projects! Best thing is, you can reuse the shapes to reuse! Really enjoy your tutorial, relaxed, informative and great for beginners and higher. I’ve been sewing for years but love to pick up tips and tricks.
I absolutely love this tutorial. I made a wall hanging a few years back for the church where I go for our craft club with zigzag stitch as you’ve just described . It was my first time to do this and never done anymore since then. But you have encouraged me to have another go. Thank you Lisa.
Hello sweet Carole! I'm so glad these videos have inspired you to create, this makes me HAPPY!
THANK YOU GOD BLESS
Omgosh thank you so so much for this video!! You have opened up a whole new world for me in quilting! I've only done 2 quilts in my life and I've wandered how people put such detail in thier quilts, now I know. Thank you!!
Hey Michelle! I'm so glad this video was helpful for you....yesssss a huge new world with endless possibilities with applique....that's one of the reasons it's my favorite quilting technique :)
Now THAT is the way to do raw edge applique! I had feared that fusing material would leave my quilts and garmets stiff and this method really eliminates that possibility. Thanks for such a great video!
I agree!! Thank you for your feedback !!!!
I just came across this older video, it must have been in your last home. I got a smile on my face and thought the many faces of Lisa Capen lol. I found the tutorial lots of fun and very informational ,
Thank you Lisa for this video. It is very helpful to watch it.Step by step, I'm learning a lot from your teaching techniques.
Looking forward to seeing this quilts progress. ❤
Thank you so much for this technique,I have been piecing for 40yrs a Longarm quilter for 20 yrs,and this is the best idea I have ever seen.I will be showing everyone.I really like your teaching style as well,your advice to new quilters is fantastic.Your manner of speaking is very pleasant also.Keep up the good work.
Barb John wow!!! I am so HONORED ♡♡♡ THANK YOU SO MUCH for your encouragement!!!
Oh My Goodness! This video just popped up. I thought I had watched all your videos but I had never seen this one. I love this quilt. I downloaded the pattern and I bought the fabric but I have started it yet! So glad to see this one.
Good morning Ms. Lisa, that’s so nice and easy to do. Thank you so much for sharing and teaching me how to sew appliqué and do it an easier way. Thank so much.
just beginning to try appliqueing and am so glad i found this video. Love the idea of being able to glue the pieces down and then sew. Thanks for sharing this technique.
Doneva Fellows i hope you like this method!!! I'd love to know how it works for you :)
Lisa, I am so glad I found this video, I just started applique and you have made it so much easier. You explained everything so that I could really understand it and I thank you for that, Will follow you on FB too.
I'm glad that you found this video helpful!! I'm still trying to get comfortable in front of the camera....that will come with time I reckon. If the videos help just ONE PERSON....then it's worth the uncomfortableness hahahahaaa. Yes follow me on Facebook as I am a lot more active over there, THANK YOU!
Such a great idea. Glue sticks were always starting the raveling before I got the stitching done. Thank you for sharing.
+S Kunnavatana several viewers remind me that glue sticks work better.....honestly I find the same thing!! The edge starts to unravel and for me it's way easier to use the liquid glue. :)
I tried this last night and it worked very well! Thank you for the tutorial!
Good morning ☀️ Ms. Capen, so much for your teaching and sharing your teaching with us, and showing how to use freezer paper and glue so easy to do appliqué. Thank you so much 😊
Thank you so much Carolyn, so good to hear from you!!
Thank you Lisa. I just joined. I haven't been quilting much lately. You have inspired me to get back to it. I love your relaxed way of teaching. I always feel like I have to rush. I look forward to getting back to my favorite hobby. Thank you for sharing your God-inspired talent with us.
Barbara Meehan I'm so glad you are getting back to sewing ♡♡♡
So inspiring, 2023 I want to Applique. I LOVE all the Bee Fabric. Thanks just subscribed.
What a lovely person you are. I was one who started quilting and then became discouraged and put my work down and haven’t picked it up for two years. Your encouraging words makes me wanted to pick it back up again.
+Jenifer Acklin. Wow Jenifer I'm so hlad to hear that you may pick up your quilting again! Sometimes walking away and taking a break is all that's needed.......and if you have a desire to get back to it, then we are here to help!!
thank for your encouragement.
This is over a year old and I just found it. Love this, thank you. Hope to find the rest of the videos
I agree this is a great method and the glue comes in handy in my quilting all the time. I bought some of the bee fabric this year because I love the colors they are classic looking and your idea for a quilt for that fabric is a good one. I like your quilt!
Sonya Rosamond thank you!!
Thank you for your words of encouragement. I’m learning and sometimes I feel I don’t do well. But I will continue to learn. Thank you.
Yes Maribel, keep going!!!! It's just like when we first learned to write our name.....it got better the more we did it :)
I found your video at just the right time! I am planning an applique project right now. I think I will try this method. Thank you for all the tips!
Only started quilting a year ago, but I am addicted. Thanks for a great tutorial. I felt like you just took some time to let me visit with you in your studio to show me this process. 💜💛💚💐
Bobbie, it's so great to hear from you!!
Love it , thanks I have made quilts for my grand children . This one making for myself as a wall hanging for my new Apt .
Lisa, I'm just thrilled that I found you!! As you chat with us on your videos, I feel like I'm a friend you invited into your workroom to sew with you. Your calm voice and easy manner help me relax so I gain confidence that I can create beautiful things, too. You explain products and steps thoroughly so I know how and why and what to do. The instructions are easy to follow. Thank you very, very much for helping me discover the joy of creating special pieces. ~ Norma
Norma you've made me feel so special, thank you sooooo so much!!!
This is super cute quilt design! Love your t-shirt too!
Thank you! 😊
This quilt is so cute!
I like your method. And I like the U-shaped work area you have so you can do everything by just rolling your chair around. I do the same thing. Sure beats getting up and down to reach work areas. Keep making these videos. NO FEAR !!
the U-shaped work area saves me soooo much time!! Thank you for watching
Your flower looks like it is reaching up to kiss the sun; just lovely!
I love it. Can’t wait to see the finished item.
Excellant tutorial, I am all for saving money on other expensive fixatives for appliqué, now all I have to do is find the glue and Freezer Paper where I live in Australia.
Joan McKenzie I hope you enjoy this technique!! It's a lot of fun :)
Thank you so much! I am a complete beginner, but have wanted to try ever since a visit to the American Museum in Batb, UK, where I attended an informal talk on the history of Quilting. That was a long long time ago, but now I have the time to start. I shall follow you as I learn this wonderful craft.
You're very welcome! I'd love it if you kept me updated on your progress :)
Thank you for your video.
I am totally new to doing applique, but I adore the look for quilts & other projects.
Since budget is ALWAYS a concern, this makes my dreams attainable, given I invest time into perfecting my skills. I do not feel the pressure to get things absolutely perfect due to cost, so i'm ready to jump in and get started learning this craft.
My husband will also be pleased to see my scraps stash finally go down, as I jazz up little thing's here and there! 😆
I am currently putting together a baby/toddler & matching doll quilt (very quick) for my little niece. It must be done within a day or two so they can take it with them back to China. So applique will give me a look that is not only super cute, but looks like I spent lots of time & money on it (but I didn't).
I can't wait to get started!
I am so excited for you Rachael! Learning new techniques can be challenging, but it sounds like you have plenty of patience and a strong will to learn, you'll do fine, and YES....you can absolutely do applique on a budget....the freezer paper will save you so much money! Your doll quilt sounds adorable.....don't you just love the projects that are way easier then they appear when finished.....FANTASTIC!
Love the glue instead of heat n bond, wonder under or any other I feel like you about the stiffness. Thanks for video!
Sharon Traughber thank you for watching! Yes, I am so glad I found out about this technique and it's nice to find other artists who also use this method :) I'd love to see some of your work!
great tutorial. thanks for the step by step instructions.
I just found this video and I enjoyed your technique so much. I am relatively a beginner at quilting although I've completed a few but my main focus is on machine embroidery. I find recently that I really enjoy applique and this looks so easy. i've got to give it a try. Thank you for the inspiration to try something new. Keep up the good work. I love the way you present your instructions you make it easy to understand and keep things moving with interest.
Yes, give this a try and see what you think :) Thank you so much for watching, and for the awesome compliment!!
love learning this method - something to try! Much cheaper without the fusible web and no need to reverse the design either.
so true...I love that you don't have to remember to mirror image the design....as I am always going going going....and sometimes forget to do that step when using the fusible adhesives......and then I have to back track when I realize my mistake!! I'm all about saving $$$$
Thank you Lisa very good tutorial, I haven’t done much appliqué, but may tackle it one day.
You can do it!
I just found your channel!! You are such a good teacher, plus you are very encouraging! Thank you so much!
Kim Bontrager thank you SO much!!
thank you i didn't know about the freezer paper....great idea...
Loved your tutorial! &, Thank you for your easy directions!
Thank you for the feedback!!! :)
I love how easy this looks. I am going to start a small project that I have been putting off.
keep me updated Yvonne!!
Thanks for the tutorial!
I'll start to get some ideas together to design a mini wall hanging.
Is this cute or what?!! You are an inspiration when it comes to ideas outside the ‘quilting’ box! Thanks for sharing.
You are so welcome!
Thanks Lisa! I will definitely be using your technique!
Awesome! I'd love to hear your feedback after giving it a try :)
Thank you Lisa ..... I started the patch 3 years ago and I like the applied but I had a lot and I still have difficulties with the mirror side with the fuse. Your method is super simple for a beginner like and will allow me to make my own drawings
I live in France and it is not so simple to make the patch because everything is in English explanations but you have done your video so well that even without understanding the explanations I feel reassured by your demonstration. thank you very much
I subscribe to your channel and I will watch everything.
Continue and once again thank you for having de-dramatized for me the applied and the postponement of the drawings
Good luck and good luck for the future

Hello Lisa,
I've been watching videos in a haphazard order about different ways to make quilts. I have an embroidery machine that will applique haven't learned yet :) I love your way of doing this..ty
+Joy s. Thank you Joy!! I believe you'll love your embroidery machine for applique :) I have one and it does a fabulous job. I find the only limitation with my embroidery machine is the largest hoop size I have only goes to 8 inches wide, and I'm a fan of doing large embroidery patterns hahahaa. ♡♡♡♡
I enjoyed watching this method 0f applique quick and easy, I will try it
Shirley Corris
YAY!!! Let me know how you like it!!
Thank you so much for your detailed tutorial even teaching how to turn the zigzag. I’m a beginner. I’m making a wall hanging with the pieces I drew in various spots like a turtle, tree, house door, etc. Have you made a video of how to make your added pieces a little puffy and protect the edges from fraying? I only have a 50 year old Kenmore. 😅 it puffs along like the Little Engine that Could.
I Luv this. .You make it look so easy. I have just started following you. Thank You.
thank you SO MUCH for following me along in this journey!!

Thank you, thank you, thank you for not having background music. I am hard of hearing and I can't tell you how many videos I have had to turn off because the music was loud and the instructions were too low, so I had to miss out on something I really wanted to see. Thanks again! Great job!!!
You are welcome Mary!
Thank you!
I found you on you tube think you are quite unique individual enjoy your presentation. It is such a small world found on facebook that you are in Hampton VA. My daughter lives in Newport News.
Elizabeth Benedict wow! It really is a small world! That's amazing :) thanks for your comment...videos are not my strong suit hahahahaa!!
I live in southeast Kansas
I am trying this next. after i finish the t-shirt quilt!
Barbara Collins this is one of my favorite quilts ♡
I like you video , great information.
thank you so much Stella!
Thank you!!
My pleasure, thanks for watching!
Here’s a thought, once you’re done and you wash that and you dry it is the middle of those petals going to lift it up and kind of Have a puckering bubbly look to them. Because with the fusible webbing that keeps the center of the large pieces stuck to the background fabric so it’s smooth. Without that does it cause the two pieces of fabric to be limp and not have a good shape. Could you stitch inside the pedal to maybe help hold it down to the background fabric?
On larger applique like this I like to go in and quilt in those areas. I like to do that even when using fusible products as well :) In the video where I offer the pattern for this quilt, you may be able to see how I quilted this one....it's so cute! ua-cam.com/video/DMwp4FJXl1w/v-deo.html
Thank you
Thank you love the video and was wondering what starch you use.
Thanks!! I use StayFlo from Wal-Mart and mix my own :)
There are tips to go on the Elmer's glue bottles. I purchased mine from Sharon Schambers website. Just a few glue "dots" does the work. I was told that these tips can be purchased at craft stores such as Michael's, Joann's and Hobby Lobby. Great at controlling the glue.
You know, I often look for the tips when I'm at the crafting stores, and never seem to come across them. I believe it would be easiest for me to just order it from the website you mentioned. To be honest, I've just gotten used to controlling the glue with the tip that comes on the glue hahahahahaa.
