Oh Candace that is going to be gorgeous. What a clever idea. i love hand applique but hate getting the pieces ready.
My FMQ is OK, but still needs work. I sometimes get lost on where I'm going and have to make an unscheduled move. It's way better than it was in January when I started to seriously do it but there is more practice in my future.
Here it is. I am not completely finished with the details, but have to put it away for a while to get ready for Canada Day celebrations. It's from a pattern by Nancy Halvorsen which seemed appropriate given she designed the fabric. I have had this pattern since 1999!
