    thats how I'm doing mine at the moment - made all the pieces and machined them together and am now appliqueing them onto a block - simple :D

    You have to make a certain number of posts in two weeks-I think 20?, and then keep that level up--read the rules--it is there....

    Hi Glenda. I have made several and even used this pattern when starting new quilters learning applique. This is a big favorite. One lady sewed lace at the top of the fan where its sewn to the block. It was so lovely. Good luck with this easy pattern.

    Thank you everyone for your responses. I am going to experiment with the pieced and the applique ways of making these blocks. You are the best!

    Glenda, I'm sure you can do the GF with no problems, but what do you think of using a different quilt block and creating your own tradition. There would be a difference, and you can add a tribute to your Mom on the label

    I did this one years ago with the lace - no pattern - and it was really easy.
