I have designed a mystery applique quilt for our quilt guild. It's always difficult to come up with education ideas but I struck on the idea of having members teach each other to do needleturn applique. I took a simple drawing and enlarged it on to freezer paper, then cut it into six inch blocks. The mystery is that you don't know what you are making in your block but hopefully when it all comes back together, it will make a great quilt!

| Hmmm, what could it be?? |
We have used fabrics from the community quilts stash so it will a real patchwork picture.
If you are interested in doing a project like this with your guild, I will post instructions and photos of the process when we have finished. Alternatively, you can add a comment here (enable email replies) and I'll email you.
Count me in - sounds like fun!
ReplyDeleteSee you next guild meeting. I hope we can finish it then so that I can reveal what it is!

You realize thus considerably when it comes to this matter, made me personally believe it from so many varied angles. Its like women and men don’t seem to be involved until it is something to accomplish with Girl gaga! Your own stuffs outstanding. Always care for it up!
ReplyDeleteI think some of your meaning got lost in translation but I'll take the compliment. Thank you!
