Applique Tuesday

I've been working on Part 3 of Soupçon.  Here's as far as I've gotten:
The hardest part is selecting the fabric to use. Karen has some fabulous ideas in this Hexagon Quilt Along and I'm learning a lot. Will have to look for the next fabric for the background - some of the blue will be cut off.

And some progress (not much, but some) on my Love Entwined, I'm happy to report.


Those 1/8th inch bias stems are a bit time consuming, and I have a few more to do before I can start to assemble flowers. Luckily, I bought Pearl Peiera's DVD that shows me how to do it.  Pretty nifty trick and lots of other tips.

That's it for my applique report for Tuesday.  How are you doing on your projects? Leave me a comment and I'll come see yours and do the same - leave you a comment that is.  I'm linking to Connie's Linky Tuesday, Esther's WoW, and Lorna's Let's Bee Social.  Go on by and say hello.

  10. I like that Soupcon block and am in awe at anyone doing Love Entwined, period. That's like College Level to my 3rd or 4th grade, lol but I will say that it is precisely that sort of work that you and others do that keeps people like me interested, plodding along, inspired, and aspiring to be that good someday! :) So I appreciate it! :)
