I used 2.6 yards last week making a baby quilt, a large hexagon, and this lady on my design wall:
She is going into a special quilt. So my totals now for de-stashing YTD is 29.39 yds out.
As far as applique, I'm picking out fabric for that Anna's Garden block. I'm also turning under with starch the seams on a Benjamin Briggs block.

That's it for this Tuesday. What are you up to? Any applique? Leave me a comment and I'll stop by, applique or not. I'm linking to Judy's Design Wall Monday and Lyn's BOMs Away. I've been trying to do Lyn's method of working on a BOM each Sunday, but it isn't happening - something always comes up.

ReplyDeleteI am also working on the Ben Biggs quilt. I decided to do it using the wash away fuseable and gluing under the seam allowancesfor machine applique. It is taking longer than I had anticipated to prep all the blocks.
ReplyDeleteJust finished my R2D2 quilt which was applique :)
