I agreed to test the Dutch Darlings pattern by Christy of Purple Daises Quilting. It’s a beautiful quilt and I had been eyeballing it ever since I saw a snapshot of it on Instagram. She uses a very glue dependent method of applique where all of the edges are turned in and held with glue against a foundation that stays in the applique pieces.
I have had the applique pieces cut for a while. And I have stared at them. All 172 pieces.
But not anymore! Today is the day that I gather my glue sticks. And more glue sticks. But seriously, so much glue.
Once I get all of the applique pieces glued I think I might take the quilt to work and sew the pieces onto the quilt there. We just got the Janome MC 9400 and I want to test out the Auto Pivot function. Perfectly stitched applique? Sign me up!
Today, I am linking up to (for the first time!) Sew Fresh Quilts.
