an alternative to liquid starch Glue vs Liquid Starch. Both methods work and have excellent results. I think the fabric should dictate which option to use. Really stubborn fabric will obey glue! Notes: The glue does not stick to the stainless steel or leave a residue or tackiness. After finger-pressing/easing the glued seam allowance in place, it stays put. The glue really tames uncooperative f...

Elmer's glue works with applipops too. THe glue does not stick to the stainless steel, and you have total control over where the seam allowance gathers before setting it with the iron. You can still tweak the gathers even using the glue. This is just another option if you do not have undiluted liquid starch on hand. and it is REALLY FAST AND perfect and FLAT after the final press.

Some fabrics absorb the starch better than others. I think this is related to the amount of sizing in it. This leads me to conclude that Pre-washed fabrics will have very high absorption so speed of production will increase again!

What are those things u are using washers to make the circles.
they are not washers. they are interlocking very slim stainless steel rings that snap together, enclosing the fabric and turning the edge with the help of starch and an iron, so there is an absolutely perfect circle that can be used in applique work.
the seam allowance should be cut scanter than is shown! I also use a larger, sharper scissors and cut from the top side, angling the scissors in.
This works well. I found that the results are best if you wait for the rings to cool all the way. The circles are stiff, but machine stitching works great. The rings get gluey; just soak and wipe off.
the crease is forever. you can manipulate the extra seam allowance by pinching/rolling it under and toward the center with your fingertips. it is important to use UNDILUTED FULL STRENGTH LIQUID StARCH. the circles soften with manipulation, but they keep their shape. it takes under a minute to make one. i've made thousands and they're all perfect. i've also "unsewed" them and repositioned them, they're still able to maintain their perfect circular shape. after sewing down and washing, they look great. i'm happy that you've tried them and are using them! i always feel i have an unfair advantage in my quiltmaking because of this fast fun way of making tons of circles, which in the past had always discouraged me from making some patterns.

How many sets are you using in this video? To make a couple of the same size circles at a time do you need to buy multiple sets of Applipops??
You need to let each one cool before removing the metal rings, so multiple sets would go faster. You can put them in the fridge to cool down faster.
i have 5 multiples of each size. i don't have to wait for anything ever! this afternoon i made 3/4" circles. i'm not a baster. i'm not known for my patience, so i don't like to wait for things to cool down. it takes about a minute for them to cool down. that's all, (if you push them off the hot spot on your ironing board.
