I got the material washed and ironed last night and started cutting out the pieces. I have the first 4 rows cut out but since I didn't know what I was going to do with the fabric when I got the 1/2 yard of each, I find that I need to get more of two of the outermost fabrics. I also got 5 yards of the white for the background and talked to the eBay seller about a green for the vines, which she sent a picture of and it's just right.
I copied and re-sized, re-oriented, and copied and pasted some more to do this border from a shot of the yellow with vines fabric. A lot of time just to design the project let alone do it!
I was thinking this is a lot of work but really, the only piecing is the center so maybe doing the applique won't send me over the edge.
