It's almost time..... 1 week and we begin!
I added a light-light yellow fabric and a dark-dark blue fabric to my fabric picks. Now I think I have everything ready to go! hugs, Jupiter |
Oops guess I wont join in this one. I got the wrong book. So will have to wait.

I will be looking for fabric this weekend...I would love to find some of the fabric that were used in the book....I love that one...

I'm excited to start these next week! Are we going to be posting our pictures to this thread?
I know that pictures of foundation blocks aren't going to be the most exciting, but I still want to see everyone's! |
Wow!! Ordered the book from amazon on Tuesday and received it today, Thursday. Nice, nice book. Looks like this is going to be fun! Time to go fabric shopping! Yippee!!!! Thanks for all your work in arranging this fun project, Jupiter!!

Counting down... This seems to have grown into a good size group.

OK Ladies.....here is my first attempt at applique! I've learned a few things.
1. remember to leave 1/4 inch for folding (didn't twice) 2. cut pieces a little larger so they will fit. 3. Maybe use your focus fabric for the outer pieces. I posted a piece of my focus fabric and as you can see, it is covered by the applique pieces. Also you can see why I need to cut a little larger, as my green pieces don't go all the way to the inner pieces at the corners. So now I think I am ready to try applique with all of you. I don't do hand sewing so I'm using Sulky's very thin invisible thread to stitch down the pieces. I'm looking forward to learning from everyone.

MaRanda I ordered mine from Amazon,hope you got the right one , mine was not the right book,but the foundation blocks are the same,so maybe I can still do it but with different blocks. lol Did I confuse every one? JO
