A Passion for Applique: Show and Tell

Show and Tell

Whoo! Hooooo! I finished my last Hop To It block. I worked on the sashing yesterday. I hope to get the all the sashing done this week and maybe the borders.

I went to the Applique Addicts bee last week. Patti was the only one with show and tell. Here is her version of one of Jenny's patterns.

If you look close at these two quilts you will notice that the pieced blocks are the same. Just different setting. These were $5 BOM from one of our local quilt shops. Patti does amazing quilts. Great job Patti!!

With Passion,
Carrie P.
