Working on a flock

Michaels had a huge sale on the heavy duty canvas I use for mounting applique both fused and stitched but not quilted. I loaded my car and got to work on the flock!

How adorable!
you do good work.

I haven't done much machine applique, are you going to stitch around each feather?

Macybaby 09-16-2015 06:12 AM

that looks like a lot of fun (a lot of work too!)

Your roosters are outstanding but I don't think they laid that egg!:D

I love your roosters.

ManiacQuilter2 09-16-2015 10:40 AM

Your roosters are stunning and gorgeous.

Some good looking "boys" there. Love the background fabric.

Delbra 09-16-2015 05:56 PM

Love these girls.

Is this flock going to be all beautiful males?

Bluebonnets 09-16-2015 08:47 PM

Very pretty!

Girlfriend 09-16-2015 10:43 PM

That rooster is amazing. Would love to know how you do that. Did you take a class?

earthwalker 09-16-2015 11:13 PM

Stunning! Beautiful roosters.

I love roosters !! Yours are great ! Any chance you would share the name of the pattern, if any, so some of us could make our own flock ?

I really like your roosters and your project looks wonderful. But I am curious about the canvas. How do you use it for applique? Is it just a backing. Is there batting in these projects?

2manyhobbies 09-17-2015 03:40 AM

Love them both, but oh the rooster! Very well done.

Love your roosters. But I have a question....Michaels sells heavy duty canvas? Michaels stores must be different from state to state....our store doesn't sell fabric.

You ARE sew funny.

Those are some handsome roosters but I really love the egg pot holder (I think that is what it is) It is darling.

Sorry but I have to say it -- got up in a devilish mood today. NOW THOSE ARE SOMETHING TO CROW ABOUT. Great job Miss Busy Beaver.

QUILTNMO 09-17-2015 10:15 AM

OhCanada 09-17-2015 10:35 AM

That's a whole lot of painstakingly careful cutting! Love the bright colours the flock is strutting

I do small (no stitching at all) medium and large which are completely stitched down but no quilting.

Nope, have about four or five different roosters then will do the hens.

No, I teach it. Just satin stitching. Usually enlarge the pattern or make it from a photo.

I have the appliqued piece stretched onto canvas frames to hang.

Have a few more different roosters to do and a lot of stitching on the two 30 inch ones.
