I've been doing appliqué for a while but it never never comes out just right......taking a BOM class to learn to use different feet (Stitchers Garden) and it is mostly appliqué so hopefully it will help me learn. Thread is always so thick looking so I guess I am doing it too tightly. And I get all those feathers sticking out of it. Our instructor says use a 14/90 top stitch needle but I would think a smaller needle would be better. She knows more than me so I will do what she says. My first block came out okay in the class so why is my wall hanging so bad? Who knows!

As promised, tho a day or two late ... here are my options for the wall hanging swap:

The last two, I have to admit, I'm not sure if I'm ready to give them away LOL ... they were A LOT of work, as I'm sure you all know ... and I am still kind of enjoying them! But, if there is someone out there that is in LOVE LOVE LOVE with one of them, then yes, I am willing to part with it!

Quilter Momma - Both are very cute, but my favorite is the Bow Tie.

Marion Quilts - Wow, you have been a very busy person. I love them all but my top two choices are #2 and #5.

I am trying to learn how to import pictures from Windows 10. Everything is different. I hope this works. We should see my rose bush.

It worked!!!! What a gorgeous view!!!!

I had windows 10 and I ended up with more problems that I could handle. I have a touch-screen all in one computer and the upgrade caused my touch screen to no longer work, files were no longer accessible, and it wouldn't let me use my embroidery system. It came off three days later!
