Tisha, I love your block! Congratulations on doing the needle turned applique - it looks beautiful. I finally broke down and printed out needle turn instruction from the internet to try to teach myself. I see so many gorgeous pieces using that appliqlue that I have to learn. How did you learn to do this? I know there are many books out on applique, but if anyone knows of a really, really good (and easy to understand) book that I can order, would you let me know?
