I like learning and trying my hand at new things.
One of the skills of quilt making has always eluded me ... Hand Applique.
By trial and error I leaned to do a nice machine applique.
Now it is time to apply the same effort toward hand stitched applique.
I want to make my own templates, too.
This is one of the new tools I am using is this
With this I have made a template set for the
Strawberries Block from the Vintage Flower Book.
So far I have the four large strawberry pieces cut
and am preparing them for applique.
I am still in the trial and error phase of seeing what method works best for me.
I do admit that I still feel all thumbs during this process.
I shall persevere.
Hand applique has long been on my quilty bucket list
and I decided it is going to be my challenge for 2024.
What are you working on this Thursday?
