- Polly suggests using Grip It Shelf and Drawer Liner to keep your GO! from slipping while you're using it.
- A great tip to help with removing the paper backing off the fusible you used for the applique pieces you cut out.
"Score the paper on the back of each leaf/acorn with a sharp pin then, slightly fold it on that scored line and slide your fingernail under the scored edge and the paper can then be easily peeled off leaving the cut edges intact."
- My new mantra.
