Oh Sandpat,the kimono silk is my very favorite thread to applique with.I am going to see if I can find some rayon embroidery thread to go with my yellow DMC as I dont like the Krenig,it always breaks or ravels even tho I use short leng. to applique .

I like the name Jolo. Wild at heart sounds good

Thanks Elle,As I enlarged to 12 block and using both brights and batiks that go so well together on black bg ,one person I showed it to,said WILD and that clicked with me to call it Wild at heart. lol. All the blocks that have been shown to us are so gorgeous, I have the first one ready to do the embroidery then on to another one. Goooooooo

Well I have started on my first block tonight. Have three hearts sewn on. Using freezer paper to make a good shape and it is working very well. So far I have not basted around the shapes. finding it easier too with the larger pieces for a 10" block. First one I did was 7" the pieces were tiny.

Of course, my pics are of needle turned ones, but I am hoping they will help those who are fairly new to applique |
