I am new to applique', I have done a couple things by machine but nothing by hand. I would love to learn how to do this so that it looks good. I would even like to try a hand applique project just to see the difference.
I like machine applique because it is faster, although if I would try needle turn by hand I might like it better.
I have an idea...why don't we start a project together? You know like the Farmers' Wife or Dear Jane quilts. I know it would be a lot of fun and we could all learn from doing the same project and discussing it here. Just a thought but I would definately participate.
