Preparing for Class
Tomorrow I get to do something I love to do and that is teach a beginner applique class so today I am going to be getting ready. I am using the pattern from this Piece O' Cake book. Linda and Becky like to use needle turn and that is what this book shows. I recommend this book for beginners. This book has a lot of great ideas, tips, and pictures so you can see exactly what to do.

ReplyDeleteOh, you commented on our blog about the Disneyland tattoo. Yes, it was real, but no, it wasn't mine. :-) My mouth dropped open when I saw it. Have a great day!
That's a beautiful applique quilt and wow a really great quilt to get beginners into applique. I too love needleturn and teach it. I'll have to look at piece of cake books for a new quilt to teach-I've been teaching BA.

Love the Sampler! Very pretty. I have three Piece-o-Cake books. They are wonderful. One pattern I have all the fabric for and have had for over a year, is from the Amish Inspired book. The one called Feathers. It's a beauty!
