    I found these at a local thrift store and am putting them on my wall in my sewing studio (50 cents each).

    After looking at them closer, I don't think they would be that hard to copy and use as a pattern for applique's for quilts ;)

    A quilters' mind looks at everything differently, doesn't it??

    Those would be great applique patterns. Just scan, enlarge and make your pattern.
