Thank you for the welcome. I love the puppy dog quilt you have up for your avatar. Are the puppies applique'd? I am making my daughter a quilted cell phone case and am trying to applique' a cat (That I cut off another print) on the front of the case. Please tell my how you did yours. I have checked out several quilting books from the library but none have covered applique' in a way that I think I can imitate. I have already sewed the case together so I need to hand sew the cat on. Any hints?

Thank you for the nice welcome. My son and his family live in Ignacio Colorado which is a very small town near the four corners (in the south west corner of the state). The closest bigger town is Durango. I will be visiting there in the middle of April.

Welcome to the board..great group of people here..As for the applique...can you fuse it on with some wonderunder? Then hand stitch it down..or do needle turn applique..just add the seam allowance and then turn it under while you stitch it on. Be sure and post a photo of it when you are done..we love quilters eye candy here *L*

Thank you for the nice welcome. I lived in Germany in 1952-1953. We lived on an Army base near Wurtzburg. I was there with my dad who was a career army man. I loved the countryside and the people were more hospitable than we probably deserved. I was only 10 years old at the time but I really felt horrible about how the Allied Forces destroyed that town and many of the people in it for no reason that I could understand. Very few buildings were left standing in Wurtzburg when we were there. No one wins a war. Everybody loses.

Thank you for your tips on the applique'. I am going to try to do the hand stitching on the cat. I will use a buttonhole stitch and see if that will hold it. I did remember to add the seam allowance. The cat fabric is cotton flannel and really frays bad.
In the picture of your quilt in this avatar it looks more like Holly Hobby dolls than puppies. Did I get it wrong the first time? |
Diane, My geography is terrible. Even that of my own state. I live in a tiny town called Browns Valley. It is about 30 min east of the town of Marysville. Marysville is about an hour north of Sacramento. I have heard of Santa Clara but I don't recall where it is.

Mine is a dutch girl sunbonnet sue. I made it for my only grand daughter. She will be 4 in June. I need to get it quilted for her. Plus I have 2 others with dirt bikes on them for her older brothers..juliann has the one with puppies on it..you will find that you will get answers from many people...there are people on here from all over the world..all with great info to offer and great answers too any question that is put out there..
Granny do you belong to the Valley Quilt Guild ?? I sold my property to Helena chemical its out on Hwy 20 near Sutter and moved back up to northern Cal. My girls graduated from Sutter high. My ex-son in law is a police offecer in Marysville. We have a daughter who lives in Yuba City. We will be down there next weekend for my oldest grandson's 11th birthday. Small world huh?
