I designed these two

First one is a celtic bars table runner.

I used premade 1/4 inch fusible tape that I ironed in place following the pattern that I pinned on my ironing board. The hand appliqued it in place.

You can't see it in the picture, but it is hand quilted in 3/4 inch cross hatching.

The other one is appliqued using my very small stash of Liberty of London fabrics for the tea pot and cups. Haven't got this one quilted yet.

OK, obviously I don't have this figured out.

The order of the pictures doen't match my discription....

Sorry, I guess you know which one is which.

Judy

I love celtic designs! Fabulous work on both projects :):):)

That happens a lot-to all of us-so don't worry about it!

Your celtic design is beautiful and I will have to share your tea cup quilt with my tea loving friend-she will want to make one too! Cute!

Judy, you are a very talented woman. Beautiful work.

More great work from you. Love both.....as usual.

Love the tea pot & cups, table runner is gorgeous too!

Tea pot and cups is great! The table runner is fascinating--great effect. Was it difficult?

These were all done with needle turn applique.
You could do the same with any applique technique..ie. fusible, machine...

Sorry, I mis-read your question...

Difficult? yes and no.

It was a little difficult to figure out the process, but once I did, it is very easy with a little guidance.

Those little curves with 1/4" bias were the trouble, but the fusible bias was a dream. Once it was ironed in place, just sew, sew, sew.

What you cant see in the pic is that the bias weaves over and under itself at each crossing.

ooooooooooo i love it. great job!

Well, Im American, but have Irish in every single ancestry line going back to 1800. Can find much before that as they dont have good records in Ireland. Ill be going back to do a little research one day.

The teapot and cups are absolutely adorable!! Wow, the celtic table runner is lovely!! You sure do beautiful work!!

Absolutely gorgeous!! Love them both for different reasons. The Celtic Bars is quietly elegant and the tea cups is sweetly whimsical!

Super job! :thumbup:

I like the celtic bars is an eye catcher.

Both are very nice designs. Is'nt it fun to create our own sometimes? Keep up the creative work.

Very nice work judy - you have a lot more patience than I.

Beautiful Judy. I love the celtic design. I'd like to try that someday :D . There is just so much on my "I'd like to try that someday" list! The tea cups are really cute too.
