My Hand Applique

The first has a pucker, but the second is better. It is very relaxing, and I can do this while watching a movie or hockey.

No, I was just holding it in my hands. Do I need a hoop? It seemed fine. I've only tried it once before several years ago. Did not know what I was doing.

No hoop for me either for needle turn applique. Nice job. Just go back and clip a couple threads th release the pucker. Then re-sew.

thats really good - You will possible find that the puckers will 'disappear' when its completed and quilted - I never use a hoop either, because if you don't get the tension right you can end up with a lot more puckers.
