Really would like to see what you did in your class, I just love hawaiian applique, we have a lady in our guild that does that, it is spectacular.

Looks like Bonni and KK used batiks. They are really hard to applique for me. Did you find difficulty also? When real batiks are made, they use very very hot water to heat set the dyes, thus the threads shrink and the thread density is high. Both of you are doing great. Color choices are wonderful. Just keep at it. As you know, this is my favorite type of quilting. Suzanne

I am learning to applique and thought this would be fun for all of us to chit chat here about applique. This way we can all learn together!

I needed something lite and portable to work on when I wait out my hubbys long work day and have to stay in town to pick him up at the train station. :lol:
