So I took another class on Saturday from Bev, my favorite teacher at Flash Sew & Quilt ~ this is the quilt top we were learning how to make:
Just what I needed ~ another project. :) But I learned something new ~ applique! We did a simple blanket stitch on this one. I like the way it turned out and it's inspired me to do more.
AND we learned how to use a new tool: Sue Pelland's Hearts and More template which made the hearts so easy! (You can see her video here)
AND I tried a new fusible product ~ Mistyfuse ~ which is a very lightweight fusible ~ great for applique.
I decided to go with a totally different color scheme and went with an aqua and green palette and I'm lovin' it! Fabrics are from Kate Spain's Daydreams, Lauren & Jessi Jung's Chantilly, Stonehenge and Stephanie Ryan's Modern Roses.
Ready for the next border!
Linking up with Anything Goes Mondays and WIP Wednesday.
Love those greens! This is a really cute pattern and the tool intrigues me. I'm not a huge fan of appliqué, although I've done a fair amount. I DO love Florida! We winter there. Visiting from Anything Goes Mondays!
ReplyDeleteYour color palette for this is wonderful! Your applique looks awesome! I haven't tried it yet. . . a little skeered ;)
ReplyDeleteThe tool looks interesting and I love your choice of green hearts.
