#71 and guess who is sewing again!
I have been going to therapy trying to get that arm moving and Friday I told the therapist, I was going home to see if I could cut fabric. As I made the stripes, the stars, and background with big strips or pieces the only time consuming was tracing out the Applique pieces and then applying them. I finished all but my top and bottom border before therapy today, but I showed the therapist and she was as pleased as I was. She knew that was my goal-lol
I saw a members quilt here and always wanted to try this. I wish I knew what the member used to iron her Applique pieces to, to adhere. Mine is stiff. My daughter ordered the silhouette for me but I made up the pieces for the rest so I could get my size. It’s 64.5x81 and it’s #71 that I’ve made for Quilts of Valor.
Oh and the Applique font was free. All I have is the name Baby Alphabet shapes free pattern for the file.
I can’t tell you how happy I am to be back sewing. I went to my quilt group Thursday and left early. I was upset bc I couldn’t cut my yardage so another member cut what yardage I needed for this. Found out it wasn’t me but the cutter at our group needed a new blade. Came home and next day tried with mine. Success! I’m happy now.
