My happy place! I haven't been on this board for months, I've missed all of you. I'm so glad I found this post, and can't wait to watch the videos posted here. I am still pretty new at applique. I have done some needle turn, some machine applique and machine raw edge applique. I started doing the Penny Haren Intricate Blocks Made Easy with a group on this board last winter. I fell way behind, but I'm back into it now and I think this technique produces the nicest result I've managed for hand applique. I'd like to try a bit more machine applique but I'm having a war with my machine. I may have to replace it if I don't win the war. Have a great day all
