Anyone tried this technique?
#1
I recently bought the book "Pieced Applique" by Penny Haren and love it! Has anyone used this method? It is a combination of piecing and appliqueing each block. I wondered if anyone has tried it and had luck with it. TIA

I have some of my Grandmother's blocks. They are the Flower Garden pattern (little hexigons pieced together). I appliqued them on to blocks and intertwined bias vines and leaves around them. They came out great and appliqueing them to the block gave the old fragile fabric more stability.

Looking at her site, it's kind of hard to figure out what she means by pieced appliqué, but I'm posting her link here, just in case you want to read the corrections to the first printing of the book (you may have the 2nd & she says it's right)

The blocks are actually a light yellow. Color didn't come out true.
