Default Teeny Weeny applique pieces

If you would have told me 10 years ago that I'd be doing this, I would have told you that you were higher than a bus load of Hippies! I had to use this to make, that!

A button would not give the same effect as the teeny weeny, however I have used them before. I'm making a wall hanging for my mom, she has a birthday coming up pretty soon. Hopefully it will be all finished by tomorrow and I'll post it then.

I applique' all the time and love it...have done some smaller than that. It's a challenge for sure! Adjust your stitch width... Don't get in a hurry, take your time....slow and steady. Enjoy and good Luck. Would like to see what you're working on... post a pic, please

A quilters got to do, what a quilters got to do! For small circles, I like tiny yo yo's but they are not exactly easy either.
