Trimmed, clipped and ready to turn
All my little pieces are ready to be turned and pressed. Once that’s finished I will cut the background fabric, the batting, glue baste everything down and start sewing. Sounds like a lot of steps to go but they don’t take that long and I enjoy each one. I really do like applique work. […]
