Garden Party quilt
I’m doing an appliqué quilt for the first time and I’m seeing a lot of YouTube tutorials. Any advice would be appreciated. Plenty of time since I’m just at the planning stage. Thanks!

Okay... kind of confused here. Looking for advice about what? Fabric choices? Applique techniques? Product recommendations? As you say, there's lots of YTs out there.

Appliqué
Sorry about that. Appliqué advice! Any tutorial suggestions might be helpful. Or where to start. Thank you.

Do you have a pattern in mind? Will you hand appliqué or do fusible with machine appliqué?
|
Is this what you are interested in making?

SharonH2O, welcome to the Quilting Board. When I applique, it's by hand. I will use a wash away fusible and trace my shapes onto the fusible, cut the pieces out and iron onto the wrong side of my fabric. After that, I'll either do needle turn applique or thread baste the pieces.

Hi Paddington
Yes, I have that exact pattern. Laura Heine’s Garden Party. Just got back into quilting so I missed it in its heyday. lol I haven’t been able to find a kit. Those are long gone. So I’ll do it myself.

I always use the lite Heat’n bond product for my machine appliqué, it is my favourite. However recently I have been helping a friend with a Laura Heine collage pattern and it calls for steam a seam 2.
Does your pattern also build the quilt on a foundation like the collage ones, or is it more of a “normal” appliqué pattern where you fuse your appliqué to the background? Do you have a see through appliqué sheet to build your shapes on before fusing them to your background? Just asking these questions to see if there is something I can help you with. have you already seen this video about the laser cut kit? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tNrJNu3BF60 |
