Double needles usually don't work with celtic work. I did not use fusible on mine, but I did use alot of pins. I drew the pattern on my fabric so I had something to follow. Now I want to do a bigger project with celtic.

Thanks, Ducky! I used the Clover 1/4" Fusible Quick Bias Tape. I'm not sure if I did it correctly, there were so many turns I cut up the pieces to fit. ironed them down, after they were all on, I machine stitched in a straight line. I think it would have been better to use a small zigzag to get the width of the bias stitched down (not just in the center). It's on pretty secure though.

Oh so pretty! hmmmm how many of these wall hanging would it take to make a full size quilt? :)

Bearpaw... absolutely beautiful.

I would love to attempt one but to this day, is still in my "things to do"

I did buy the book, Celtic Pieced Illusions. The quilts and hangings are all pieced but have the illusions of the celtic knots.

Wish me luck..I have the fabric and pattern and now all I need is the PUSH to get me going.

Again, your hanging is a piece to be prized...
