northwind 4Rabbits - Wool applique, fused and machine appliqued and quilted. This is the final project for Calico Cut-Ups Quilt Guild BOM (A is for Applique), for which I was chairman. A practice project presented applique techniques on a fat quarter background, starting with a vase and stems (see Vase w/Flowers). Each month I featured a new flower with different techniques, starting with raw edge applique and ending with hand techniques, including needle-turn applique. The table mat is featured in months January (templates), July (Part I) and September (Part II) and includes quilting ideas. The last month (October) shows different embellishment techniques (see Fight at 1:00). Lessons for this BOM will be on our website through December 31, 2011 (www.calicocutups.org).
