Press and you are ready to applique your pieces to the blocks with the edges already turned under.
    That is so pretty! It looks like you added lace at the bottoms. What a nice touch. I too want to try that turned method.

    That is a neat tip. I am planning to applique soon and will give your method a try. Thanks.

    That is the cutest Sue quilt. What a great job. I love your lace and ribbon embellishments. What size are your blocks?

    Nickylsf......love your area! Always make it to the "drugstore" for the overflow of fabric there. Even after the Sonora Quilt show.
