Cre8- thats good info about the washing, however I have to throw in that the Color Catchers don't ALWAYS do the trick..I love them, but my DH has a drawer full of pink underwear to attest to the fact that you must still think about what you throw together!
Kathy...84!!!! Wow...can't wait to see all these quilts!
Welcome lizzy!!! There are so many different ways to do the applique that I'm sure you'll find one that works well for you!
