Just For Fun


I've been trying out new blocks from the book "Shape Workshop for Quilters"  from Fat Quarterly. I've been forcing myself to try some new techniques.  Here are my first attempts at machine applique .... I love it, the process and the result .   I sure hope I feel the same after trying paper piecing !!


More applique, and patchwork ... such fun !


HSTs are not my favorite to make but I do like the block.

 
My blocks so far ... 12 of hopefully 30.
 
I'm excited to gift this one to a special relative :)
 
 
Happy Weekend Everyone !!!!
