Turn your project so that you are going to work on the side of your project that the applique piece is not on.
Pick a spot on your project and draw your needle through it making sure to leave a tail.

Flip your project back over, and pull the yarn through the wrong side of your applique piece.
Find another set of loops int he back of your applique piece and pull your yarn through.
Pull your yarn back through the right side of your project and pull it through.
Repeat pulling through from the applique through the project and from the project through the applique until your applique piece is securely down.
Turn your work to the wrong side where you have your tails, and weave in your ends.

I had a terrible time trying to watch this video. I could hear most of the audio, but the video kept hanging up and wasnt even buffering. I tried several times including rebooting my computer, making sure I had no other windows or applications open, and still no luck. Obviously, the brief written directions dont contain as much information as the video.
