Thread: Rose hall tell us about applique with fleece?

Could you explain what you are doing, it sounds interesting :D and show some :wink:

I'm so sorry! I have been busy making brownies for an incentive at school! (10 boxes and counting, but, boy does my house smell good!!!).

Let me post a pick of my ABC quilt. I don't think any of the pictures are close up.

I happen to cut the pieces with my die cut machine, but you can cut them out with scissors, too.

I use a simple blanket stitch (like what you would use with fusible) to stitch the shapes to more fleece.

When I get a break today at work, I'll run home and take some close up shots of the baby feet blanket I'm working on.

thanks for asking!

Here are some pics of the baby feet fleece blanket I am working.

here is a link on how to do the blanket stitch. I'm not very good at explaining things sometimes (I like for someone to show me).

The example is demonstrating on crochet, but the same would work for fabric. I take a tiner "bite" with my blanket stitch. I tried to get a good picture of the tiny stitches, but couldn't. If someone needs me to, I can do a quick block with a contrasting thread that might show the stitches better.

forgot to post the baby feet pics--what a day already!

ps. these pictures aren't even on my website yet.

I have several other baby shapes--pm me if you are interested.

I have only appliqued fleece on fleece. I would like to try some fleece on cotton soon. (maybe next week over spring break I'll try it and post pics.)

If it works it would be so easy or seems like it would :D
