Thanks

I hope you understood that . I'm not too good at explaining these things to other people.

At first I was very intimidated by the thought of applique. So I did a small project first with the raw edge and decided that was not the look I was going for. Then tried the freezer paper method and liked it a little more. Next I went for the needle turn method it was okay but found that I liked the sharp crisp edge I got when I did the freezer paper so I combined the two sort of and was able to get some nice results.
I am currently working on a fairly large applique project and find that I get discouraged by it. So I am glad that many are liking this idea of applique and hope that I can learn many new ideas and techniques in the process.

Alrighty now. I ordered the "Miss Kelly" block and the center block for 2012 from Erin. Only $10.00 each. I think that is a very fair price. Also in January the 12 blocks for "My tweets" you will be anle to purchase. So now I need to decide what my fabric will be, but more than likely I will go with batiks.

Needleturn
I love, love, love! applique. I do needleturn, have way too many projects going but am considering starting Baltimore Christmas, Friends of Baltimore and/or Little Brown Bird after Christmas. I've completed one Baltimore and am handquilting it (very slow process!) and have done some of my own designs. Current projects include My Tweets, a Lori Smith pattern and Eyta Sitar's Applique Affair as well as Aunt Millie's Garden, all in various states of completion. Not enough hours in the day and too many other things that change my focus!
