Sunbonnet Sue...Yep love to hand applique those...
if you are just learning look on quilterscache.com lots of free blocks on there. I do the sew and flip method. I buy the light weight fusible pellon. Make sure the glue side is toward the right side of your fabric, then trace your shape onto the wrong side of your fabric, sew around it, trim it with pinking shears, then slit the pellon and flip it so the glue ends up on the outside. Then iron it onto your backing block and blind stitch it down. NO pins to stick you while you are hand sewing. Good luck
