So here is my block all fused down and the vase machine stitched down. I like how the colors look together. I'll be working on sewing all the rest down over the next week or so.

Love it! I really considered using some blue in the flowers. Seeing yours, I kind of wish I would have. But it's done, so will leave it alone. Nice job!!

Peg,
I think you mentioned that you use water soluble double tape to secure teh applique pieces while you are attaching them. I'd like to try it and bought the tape. Do you use tape just in the middle or you cover the entire back and fold the seam?
Maybe you can show us a picture?

I'd be interested in that technique also.

I love all the different variety of the vases and flowers. Hopefully I will get mine done by the time the new one comes out. I *almost* did fusible because it would have been quicker and I love how sharp the points are with it. When I do needleturn the points aren't as sharp. Perhaps one day they will be.

My vase with the brown is going to look so dull now after seeing all that great fabric people are using for their vases. I am loving this project though and seeing everybody's results.

Maybe that is why you do the vase last. LOL

Andrea, I'll post a pic later tonite,,,, not at home now.

I use the tape in the middle, you can' t needle through it, the thread hangs up on the glue.

Snip a small piece,, usually 1/2", &place it where it will not interfer, depending on the size of the piece to be appliqued.

A leaf may only need 1 piece, in the middle
while a larger flower may take 3 pieces, triangled around the center.


I will be hoome around 8 & will post phooto then
