Eppiflex Orange Peel Templates

Orange Peel Templates by Eppiflex — Perfect for “Starch Now, Sew Later” Appliqué

Orange Peel Templates by Eppiflex are a favourite for appliqué lovers who want smooth, consistent shapes without the fuss of hand‑turning seams. Designed specifically for the “starch now, sew later” method, these templates let you press your seam allowances neatly over the edges, allow them to cool, then remove the template cleanly before appliquéing the shape onto your background fabric. The result: crisp, elegant orange peels with beautifully smooth curves.

Why These Templates Work So Well

• Laser‑cut precision ensures every orange peel is perfectly uniform for accurate placement and repeatable results.
• Patented flexible design bends when needed, making it easier to handle curves and tight points without distorting your fabric.
• Strong and reusable — they hold their shape project after project, saving time and reducing waste.
• Transparent for fussy cutting so you can position motifs exactly where you want them.
• Heat‑resistant for safe, effective pressing when prepping appliqué shapes.
• Firm edges mean no more sewn‑in card and beautifully sharp, clean outlines.
• Easy removal without stretching or stressing your seams — ideal for both whip stitch and ladder stitch finishing.

Perfect For

• Layered appliqué designs

✨ What Makers Appreciate Most

These templates combine the strength of a reusable tool with the flexibility needed for curved appliqué, giving you smooth edges, consistent shapes, and a more enjoyable prep process. Their transparency and heat resistance make them especially useful for motif placement and pre‑starching — two steps that can make or break an appliqué project.
