The mailman handed me the golden ticket today.
I received 2 blocks from Jean in Oklahoma.....The one with the pink cancer ribbons for cathy has sparkley fabric and is tres chic....
Also I wanted to give you a tip that I asked Jean about. I really like her tack down on her applique, so I asked her about it.
Her is what Jean had to say.....

"I just take my time, I use different stitches depending on what the design is. I do enjoy it.

I just use a lite weight tear-away stabilizer, usually get it at Hancocks or Joanns. It's by Pellon. I use it usually for my machine embroidery too".

There you go, I have tried and I won't do it anyother way now. It really helps turning curves too.
