    Very pretty, I'm going to have to look up that book now. I'm really getting interested in the applique process. Still newbie in that learning curve. :D

    Quik-Yes, you do the embroidery BEFORE you sandwich the quilt. Your applique is fabulous. Looks like you have the technique down pat. I love Intercourse and the Old Country Store-the quilts are to die for!! Have you been upstairs to the museum too?

    Ah great! Thanks for all the replies and encouragement. Other than learning the applique techique in the beginner quilting class back in 1988, this is my first applique quilt. I have always love hand stitching so this may be came natural to me. I will work on the embroidery part before I put together the quilt (that maybe another year or so). Good thing I asked you experts. The book doesn't say anything about the embroidery, I'm going by what's on the picture. I just love instructions with pictures.

    This seems like a big project to me, sometimes I get overwhelmed. I sure would like to get it done someday. I will try to keep up-to-date pics in the future.

    Thank you all.

    You do beautiful work!

    Yes, I would do the embroidering before you quilt it.
