DSCN1521.jpgTook me a while to get this done....was hard on my hands, sewing thru all those layers and adhesive.
I would do more work before adding the back and binding another time ! Turned out cute , tho' I didn't
venture far from the design...as many did !

I am just now getting to this project. I was off visiting for a week but prior to that I did get the Introduction prep done - I constructed the background. I prepared the applique pieces for fusing and cut them out. Then today, my first day back home, I just had to do something in my sewing room and did most of the first lesson. I reviewed the video and noted, primarily because of Marilyn's coment about stitching through the tough adhesive, that Lauren does recommend using a fusible meant to be stitched through. Does anyone know what fusible that might be? Unless I got one by accident I am going to have to struggle with the stitching just like the rest of you. Sometimes it pays to toddle along behind. Ofcourse, I can't change mine now that its fused. Pictures to come later.

Renata OFFLINE Posts: 2673 Thank you received: 260	Beautiful, Margo! I too love the basket weave as well as what to me looks like happy clouds quilted into the square with the words "quilting" in it. But what I like particularly about yours is how the colors really pop.
