    I have not done it yet but I do like applique. The Laura Heine kit is beautiful.
    quilterella your Avatar is awesome. I love it.
    Thankyou for the compliment. I did it for my youngest DGD in two weeks from start to finish. She absolutely loves it.
    Holy Cow did you sleep at all? That is awesome. I can why your DGD loves it. I would treasure it too. Great work.

    Have any of you made one? And what do you think of the raw edge technique?
    A teeny tiny blanket stitch in pale pink would be just gorgous on those flowers.
    Thanks for the tip! haven't started it yet, but better get going on it soon... also have to make a denim rag quilt first..

    I was in Laura's shop yesterday (Fiberworks in Billings, Mt). It is a beautiful shop with a gazillion quilts of hers hung on the walls. Also several quilts from other designers using the raw edge applique style. When you see so many together they look great, must be the latest style. She thread embroiders all of the applique pieces until you can hardly see them, and then does a very small stipple stitch on every little square inch of the entire quilt top- she must burn thru 10 miles of thread on every quilt!!
