Absolutely. If you can't draw you can search for free coloring pages and trace off what ever you want. And free coloring pages exist for just about anything you can think of. A search engine is an appliquer's best friend.

I made a baby quilt some years ago, using a coloring page with a bear and balloons. Unfortunately, did not get a picture before I gave it away, but the little girl dragged that quilt everywhere. The only time the mom could was it was when the baby was fast asleep, lol
I would agree with the previous poster "... if you can trace it, you can applique it...". I would also add, if you like it, do it.

If you love wild life here are two book spirit of the northwoods, a forest of quilts. I have both and love them. And if you like lighthouse get the book lighthouse of New England.

The appliques are big without small pieces, and you only need a few for the quilt. Great for beginners.

there are tons of applique quilts---cats, dogs, fish, *McKenna Ryan has a wide assortment* we've done lots & lots of appliques using coloring book pages---you can pretty much applique anything you can find a picture of.

Children's coloring books or online pages. I once downloaded a Welsh Dragon and appliqued it to a center medallion for a quilt.

What's your favorite thing, animal or hobby?
