I've also got my Dresden plate prepared for appliqué. We are learning 3 different methods for machine appliqué in this class, one technique per block. This week we'll get to finish the appliqué blocks and then next week we tackle paper piecing!
In cross stitching, I set aside the grapes for a few days and tackled another "older" project - The Sun Sets. No photo yet, but I'm making some decent progress. It was a really good project to work on during the Moonlight Stitching at my LNS. The other thing I worked on was their make-it-and-take-it, a needle swatch adapted from a pattern by Nordic Needle. It's finished!
Comments:
Loving all those quilt blocks! I'll look forward to seeing them finished. I keep hoping Moonlight Stitching will fall at a time when I can go. Maybe next time?
