Applique - tiny pieces
Here is the center of the wall hanging I am doing ... i still have all four borders to do.
There are over 450 teensy tiny pieces of applique that make up these flowers, leaves and stems. I am not really sure how I'll be able to applique some of these.
I have some ideas - but wanted to know if someone has already tried one of them - or has another idea
1 - use clear thread and do FMQ around the pieces, so the mistakes won't be as visible
2 - buy a piece of tulle? (I don't know if that is the right word) or really fine clear netting and place it over the top and do some FMQ on the pieces, but if I miss some, it's not a big deal?
3 - suck it up and do it all by machine in matching thread and never buy another pattern like this again
Your thoughts / comments are greatly appreciated!
Thanks so much!
