Layout: Circles and outside cornerstones are temporary glue-basted to facilitate hand-applique.
If you look closely you can see that the pieced blocks have holes where they meet the grey border. The plan was to add the cornerstones and I did so by preparing them the following way:
1) Iron 2" 3 layer-thick freezer paper square to the back of the 2 1/2" fabric square.
2) Wet the seam allowance with starch and iron to the back. Remove freezer paper square
3) Use Elmer's washable school glue to place 2" squares precisely in place. Because this glue is a starch product it will wash out completely. Use an iron to secure placement.
4) Repeat with all squares
