Actually, applique and I don't get along very well. I have a friend on this board who is a master at hand applique, she does beautiful stuff, and thought I would give it a try. Was going to make the block in my new avatar. But it was horrid, so I just put fusible web on the back of all the pieces, trimmed it down and ironed on a piece of black batik. One more of the little projects hanging on my sewing room wall. I've decided, even tho' I like some hand work, applique is not on the list. I love to do embroidery and have made a couple quilts using Crabapple Hill patterns.
