That one is raw edge applique. I do two versions of that. The version you see in that block is for wall hangings. I do a much more sturdy version for things that get washed like bed quilts. Here is my bed quilt, which has been on the bed for years and washed periodically. [ATTACH=CONFIG]566524[/ATTACH] I'm thinking of this type of applique for many of the quilts, sometimes combined with piecing. Terriam, Muse&Sew, Billi and Kassaundra let me know if you're comfortable with this. If not I'll be happy to just piece a block for you.
