Thank you, Wendy! This is what I know so I will do that too. And see if others chime in. Thanks!

Rosemary will give you the best answer she is so accurate. I'd cut into the point to within a thread of the paper then continue pressing and when stitching needle turn the final point to get the best shape.

Looking for your advanced advice on hand applique' points/corners.

I've watched shows 1912 with the apliquick tools, have the 2 point things, and show 1701 on making the sharp point on a leaf. I need tips on the inner corner of an inner corner of a leaf to branch sort of piece. I'll attach a photo. (arch to oval)

I started with 2 layers of freezer paper (reverse pattern) and have it on the wrong side of the fabric and have pressed the seam allowances around as much as I can. I will remove the freezer paper of course before stitching. Now what?!!

I've thought of marking the right side with a fine chalk pencil and attempting to turn as much as I can as I go. But how much into that corner can I go? The Impossible Dream?

This light green is a large oval with these leaves and it is cumbersome to work with, I'm not wanting to lose the shape as I work so have wanted to leave the freezer paper on as long as possible.

Your next step would be....



{Got a bit caught up here... We had a super busy Thanksgiving but wonderful with extra days with both adult kiddos, that took some recovery time, finished customer work for Christmas, I've been drowning in end of year bookkeeping, several doctor's appts, and this is my only month to quilt for me for this whole year so I'm trying to get a lot of things enjoyed. }

They're probably keeping it open because it was Sue's last one for TQS. Sure will miss her; enjoyed her blog every month.

saw that too - but havn't found anything about the second BOM on the website.
very much looking forward to this as - however much I like Edyta and her designs - I've never really liked sampler quilts and that's what I get from the Barn Quilt. I know they are beautiful blocks, colors and fab. appliqué - so I'll certainly collect all the instructions - but the quilt as a whole will not be made by me

TQS is keeping open the Sue Garmin BOM for this year and the new Edyta Sitar quiilt.

In the newsletter it says there will be 2 BOM in 2018 that sounds exciting. Anyone got a clue about this

As always, so creative, Wendy! Love the chickens, composition, techniques, color, embellishments and quilting--just perfect!

Happy (belated) Thanksgiving everyone! I hope all had a wonderful day, and a great weekend ahead.

I am thankful for all my friends here at TQS. I am grateful for all the laughter, information, hugs and friendship you all provide.

Happy Thanksgiving to all, even those in other countries. Maybe have a turkey sandwich with us today!

Marilyn - Thank you for the Happy Thanksgiving wishes! I’ve prepared gluten free and dairy free pumpkin pie and cornbread stuffing to take to our sons home tomorrow. I’ll serve a repeat dinner at our place on Friday!
