I started the 3rd Baby Quilt today...
I pulled a few fabrics from the cupboard...
This Background fabric inspired the Quilt...
Auditioning fabrics...
I removed the big dot fabrics...
This brown fabric is....yummy!
Narrowed down to these fabrics...
This Easy Circle Cut Ruler makes circles.....FUN!
The solid fabrics are catching my eye...
I've decided to use only solid fabrics...
A few of these are my hand dyes...
Swiss Cheese Fabrics...
Turning the Edges on the circles:
Fusible Interface is the bottom
layer....Fusible side Up
Circle on top......pretty side Down
Stitch 1/4 inch all the way around the circle.
Trim away the extra fusible on the edge...
Cut a slit in the Fusible Interface...
Turn the circle....right side Out
Finger press the edges...
All of the circles have a turned edge...
Next step.....Fusing down the circles then
stitching down the circles
Eventually I will trim the edges like this.
More to come...

I love the circles and the dots!!! That is the only way to do such applique......the results have such beautifully smooth turned edges!!!!
ReplyDeleteSo jolly! Good decision to use just plains - they work so well with the dots.
ReplyDeletelove the dots!
