Flannel/Felt Applique

This past year, we have been doing applique as our Block of the Month in my guild. I designed these blocks for the challenge. Last patterns went to them in October. My version was done in fusible felt with hand stitching to keep them in place.

I donated it to another member so she could quilt and give to a local charity for raffle.

Now, I'm working on a purchased flannel applique BOM. Will share that wen it's further along.

Here's a sneak peek at one of those blocks. All of the blocks (both quilts) are fusible "raw edge" style applique that is finished around the edges with tiny straight stitches rather than a more traditional blank stitch embroidery.
 

Autumn Fun Sewing

 

Recently I've been playing around with autumn fabrics after winning the monthly doorprize of my local quilt guild, which was beautiful fall fabrics.

I managed to create a small wall hanging, this square table topper (above) and a lap quilt (below). All still need to be quilted...so are not on display this year. But, I'm a year ahead for next year! Ha!
