    • I have got to be honest and say that when I first came to this website last week I was just looking for something entertaining to read but your blog has been super useful and insightful. I even found myself shocked and dismayed by how people reacted. This article definitely has all of the info and facts anyone could want. I bet seasoned WordPress experts would love this. I’ve got some great ideas for this website so we should chat. This site is super useful to me.

  1. This is beautiful, Wendy! So Christmasy! I have always admired applique quilts but have not yet “got around” to attempting one of my own. They taught how to applique shapes with machine satin stitch, invisible zigzag and blanket stitch in my sewing machine mastery class years ago, but the part that makes me nervous is how do you make sure everything is placed/centered perfectly in the block, and that no puckering happens if you’re doing a bigger applique than just those little samples we did? Doesn’t the fusible web stuff make the applique areas stiff and flat instead of puffy? I don’t expect you to write a whole tutorial on this, but if there’s a particular book with a method you like, I’d love it if you could point me in the right direction. And THANK YOU for sharing this beautiful pattern and fabrics with us!
