Hand Appliqued Quilt Blocks

Pink Flowers in the Rain.
 

 
These 6 hand appliqued blocks were made by me - using the needle-turn method.
If you don't like doing hand applique, I've done that job for you. I love doing hand-applique.
Each block is Apprx. 8 X 8 inches.
++The beginning of the green stem to the top of the pink flower is about 4 3/4 inches.

***This item is finished and ready to be shipped to you*** 
 
100% cotton fabrics.

I finally got these completed and listed in my Etsy.

I love doing needleturn applique.

 
These 12 hand appliqued blocks were made by me.

 
 
Each block is Apprx. 9 1/4 X 9 1/4 inches.

 
The hearts are about 4 1/4 inches at the widest points; and about 5 inches at the tallest points.

My fingers were itching to applique

It won't be long 'till hearts will flutter for each other, again.

Do you ever get that itch to apply one pretty fabric atop another?


I created the heart template {not shown here} from an old box.


The red background squares are 10 1/2 inches.

 

I h a n d - a p p l i q u e d  the hearts utilizing the needle-turn applique method.


I decided to get ahead of the 'season' and create a few fun blocks.

++ A quilt that I made for my grand-daughter. ++

  

She wanted random quarter moons spread across the quilt.



 

I drew a pattern, then cut and hand appliqued the moons.

A Rainy, Knitting, Sewing Saturday.

(Click on the photo above to see more photos and to view/buy this lovely handmade tote bag)
Today was ANOTHER great day for doing what I love most-CRAFTS.

Proof that is rained is shown on the leaves and branches in my yard.


Todays' raindrops/dollops on the leaf above.


Above is a strippy scrappy country themed tote that is in the works. I added some machine embroidery on some of the strips.


I actually knitted this purse today. (I hope to get it sewn up and embellished before the end of the year)


The above piece on the top will be a wristlet. I have wristlets for sale. Click on the photo to see some of them.  I love making yo-yo's. They are so simple, and can be done almost anywhere,anytime.




The captions speaks for themselves on these two.


I did get the tote below listed on Etsy this week. Woo Hoo

 I loved doing the raw hand applique / top stitching on these leaves.


More proof that it rained today.

 Another yo-yo applique tote in the making.
 Applique is so easy, and so fun.
Love the batik fabric strip in there.

Everything is better with applique.

Thanks for viewing my blog. Please feel free to comment. I love comments.
