Flip flops ... Thinking of summer
 
1 Attachment(s)
My promise to myself this year was to try new things ... First up was machine appliqué. I have liked this pattern for a while, so this was my project. It didn't require the purchase of much fabric, as my bins were full of good sized pieces! It was a great learning experience and a really fun quilt top to make. All I need now is summer!'

Cute. I love the bright colors you used. I can almost feel the warm summer weather

I think we all should come and try a pair, maybe in the sunshine!!! Since the forecast is 14" plus of snow here in DE.

That is adorable!!! You did a great job. I,m about to embark on applique too.
Never have done it before. Thanks for sharing.

So cute. What is it about flip flops? Oh wait...we equate them to nice warm summer days!

Love this. Has been on my to do list for quite a while

grammasharon 01-21-2016 06:03 AM

I am at the point of trying applique also and your quilt has given me a nudge! Thanks but think I will try something a bit smaller, like maybe a pin cushion. LOL

mjmachin 01-21-2016 06:34 AM

I love your flip-flop quilt!! I have been thinking of making one and since I live in FLA it would be perfect! You did a wonderful job. Enjoy!!

ManiacQuilter2 01-21-2016 06:50 AM

You did an excellent job picking bright fabrics. I just have to find time to cut my background squares and I will be off and applique my flip flops.

skypony 01-21-2016 07:21 AM

That is a really cute quilt. I hope it brings summer soon!! We just had 31" of snow about a week ago and we are looking forward to some spring or summer weather!! Thx for sharing

wildyard 01-21-2016 05:16 PM

Wow, that is a LOT of applique! Congrats on a job well done. I do a little bit here and there, but would be daunted to just look at a pattern like that.
