Open Satin-Stitch Applique
#26
No, only a couple have JTGd. We are still collecting participants for this group! We will have everything ready to get rolling for the 5th of June.
Patti is still working out all the details of her AOTH, Elle is still waffling about background color, I am getting my plate cleared. I only did a block so I could get this tutorial up on the Board. There are several ladies who had started this quilt a long time ago, but stopped working on it. There are at least a couple who have already finished theirs - a long time ago. Probably the one who will beat all of us to the finish line will be Lesley. But we love her and she is such a big help with all sorts of things, that we let her work at her own pace. Don't want to stifle her creativity!
So we have wafflers, dither-ers, beavering-ers - all sorts, & we are one terriffic group!

Thanks Kathy for the refresher course. This is the way I have done applique in the past. I never could get the hand applique to lie flat and even. I have book marked this so I can go back and refresh my memory.

I also like to trim out the center of the larger pieces of applique. If I could make a suggestion, move your needle to the far right, if your machine can do that, then you will be able to keep the edge of the applique along the foot and you'll have a guide to follow. Hope I said that right. Try it, it really helps you know where you are stitching. Your block does look great.
