Applique Club (Do you like to applique, lets chit chat here)

I am learning to applique and thought this would be fun for all of us to chit chat here about applique. This way we can all learn together!

I do like to applique but I do the raw edge machine applique and I don't think it's really considered appliquing. But, it works for me and that's what I will continue to do. I absolutely hate to do any hand work.

Hi,

Love to see some of your projects with your raw edge machine applique

LOVE IT!!! LOVE IT!!! LOVE IT!!! :lol: :lol: As a matter of fact, I just finished a wedding quilt top that has sunflowers, hearts, and guitars for a dear friend's son. My only problem with it is that I'm not sure it will be completely finished (ie. quilted) in time for his wedding. :oops: :roll: I do enjoy doing hand applique because I find it so relaxing, and I can take it anywhere with me. I can hardly wait to get started on another hand-appliqued quilt. I have done machine applique, but I really prefer doing it by hand. :wink:

Count me in! I'm dying to learn to applique. I've looked at tutorials but they confuse me. Does anyone have a website or youtube video they could recommend that would help me learn how to applique? Thanks!

I would love to join. I have been leaning to doing aplique cannot wait to talk!

I have an applique project all ready to go, but I need some help. I'm hoping my mom will have time to help me learn this new skill.

Most of my applique is dogs. I have done some flowers, as in 'Happy Daisies'. I will have to look and see what I might have left. I give most of my stuff away.

Here are the dogs.
