LOL I think that is how it is done applique style Kelli... but first iron the stitch witchery to the ribbon BEFORE you cut the ribbon...makes it easier to cut first of all..and the paper backing on the stitch witchery is easy to draw on so you know where to cut and then the edges won't fray as easily...after you cut the ribbon, BEFORE you peel off the backing, take a small brush and use it to apply a small amount of fray check just to the very edge where you cut the ribbon...this also prevents future fraying. The stitch you would want to use to tac it down will be a small and close together zig zag.
