Here they are, the DJ appliques that I have done so far, in all their wonky-wobbly-ness!
The top three were done in December.
The rest this month ... thanks largely to two days waiting for the satellite dish guy to arrive.
I'm just kind of stumbling along and figuring out what I am doing here.

QE, just lovely!
What are you waiting for Jeanie?

JeanieG ... I bet I waited six months before I opened my package ... and then finally, I got my nerve up. As for a DJ thread, I was not allowed to start one as the original DJ group are starting a new one, sometime soon (I think February?). Honchey, suggested that in the meantime, there's no reason why we can't plan here with HuntAnnette's FFC-DJ! I agree with OKSGlad ... just get that box opened and start with a block here and there. They fit nicely in between the cracks of UFOs. Sometimes when you just need a bit of a break ... then just make one!


Thanks OKSGlad ... though wobbly and wonky they are. I hope I can get better ... or might be just downsizing DJ to skip applique.

ahhhh thy look great....think I will start on the appliques next...as soon as I`m done with the quilt I`m working on...feels like I`ve been working on it forever...lol but it`s getting there.....

Thanks HuntA ... I thought some of them were pretty smooth, til I finished them off and gave them their final pressing. Am wondering if the pressing poked out some of the rough edges? And here I thought you already had been doing some appliques! ... where is my brain? I decided I better start trying to do them for if I left them all til the end, for sure I would never do them. Maybe if I sneak them in amidst, I can tolerate and endure?

appliques is my least favorite piecing....I haven`t done much so to me yours look amazing....if I do half as good I`ll be happy!! You are getting there....remember the turtle won the race lol I just love the idea of Blue Jane....it will absolutely be gorgeous....

Oh but this is one impatient turtle! I want to do it right from the beginning ... immediately ... NOW!!!!!!! I just wish I had someone to mentor me IRL to help me along with applique. Am I doing things right? or wrong? that is the question! and someone to check in with sure would help, being that I really do not know what I am doing. In all honesty, despite all I have said, I am fairly happy with what I have done so far ... and not too discouraged.
