Applique Club (Do you like to applique, lets chit chat here)
I am learning to applique and thought this would be fun for all of us to chit chat here about applique. This way we can all learn together! I had never seen nor heard of that typeof quilt before to-day. I was really taken with hte idea! |
I took an applique class at my last quilt retreat. I have only done a little - by machine (can't by hand because of a problem with my thumbs). I did some applique on a table runner that I posted in my album:

Applique is my favorite kind of quilt. It's kind of like working in a coloring book. I've done the freezer paper/starch hand applique, but the prep time takes awhile. Lately I've been doing machine applique. Much faster, especially if you want to finish something in this lifetime.

I love any kind of applique. Just finiished a machine applique for my neighbor.

I agree

I love applique and all hand work....would love to chat some.

I also do mostly raw edge applique. I finished my latest project today. This one took me a few days because of the checkerboard border. That and because I only worked about an hour each day. But it was a fun project after doing all the larger quilts I've been doing. I also have a memory wall hanging for my grandson that should be finished next week.

I have done some applique but raw edge and machine zig zagged. I would like to learn the other methods that are out there.
|
I mainly hand sew everything and that includes applique which is a favourite, I have done rough edge but mainly needle turn.. I am self taught and have done loads over the years. So would love to join you Craftybear
