    this is the fabric I am using for the 3.5 blocks, I have painted the flowers in a darker purple and 1 of the chicks has been enhanced with a metalic gold paint, and I haven't decide what else I'm going to do to it, but this is the start

    this is after painting

    Oh those are really cute scrambled chickies!
    S&S...your painting is awesome!

    Brooke- are you trying to use your embroidery machine do the applique with the satin stitch or are you just going to sew it? If you are sewing it...be sure to use stabilizer!
