    Hi, great job! I can't wait to do mine. I love applique. There sooo many patterns on the quilt sites that I don' know which one to so first. So, I do the block of the month ones. Neat

    Beautiful Pam! I love those fabrics the more I see them - so fresh and pretty! And your piecing always looks so crisp and flat. I must check out the glue as well, I've just done some appliqué of trailing vines made with the Clover gadget at 1/4" wide and even though I have the tiny appliqué pins, then do get in the way!

    I too love the look of applique and will try anything to help it along. Those tiny applique pins are better than normal ones but it's still a pain to pin everything. Glue has got to be better. The fusable worked pretty good for the doubled fabric pieces.

    I use heavy spray starch after washing and drying. It really helps with the piecing.
