Applique BOM Found!

Yep....right there in my very own piles of WIP's I found this Antique Flower Garden Project from  KimSchaefer's Flower Festival book. This is block #50 called Yippee Twist:

When I first learned to applique, I found this BOM to be too difficult for my beginner hands. Now a few years later, I feel able to tackle it.
This will be one of the projects I'll look forward to sharing throughout 2015. I have missed having an applique project and am looking forward to sharing this on Sunday's at Kathy's.
With Smiles,
Val:)

  1. I know what you mean about how our abilities change. I often think back to when I did my Hawaiian quilt which was pretty simple, but back then it seemed so frustrating. It takes a lot of tenacity to become happy with our quilting.

  2. It's such a nice feeling when you can realize how far you've come in developing skills. It looks like you have some fun stitching for next year.

  4. This looks like a perfect BOM project for 2015! I am not a huge fan of doing appliqué, I prefer wool felt appliqué or embroidery. This will be perfect to share for Slow Sunday Stitching and the fact that you already have everything you need is even better!!!
