Looking Ahead

I realized with a jolt the other day that it's JULY already.  And the past 4 years of Quilting Violinist history has shown that many of my Etsy shop customers start thinking about (and purchasing) autumn decor in August.

Better get busy!

I never get tired of Autumn Leaf Applique.


This placemat set is ready to be quilted.

I'm all about quick and easy machine applique.  I fused scraps with Pellon Wonder Under, cut out the shapes with the Accuquilt Go cutter (the "Autumn Medley" die), ironed the shapes to the background fabric, then sewed around the edges with a narrow zig zag stitch.

As always, I love sets of placemats that Go Together But Don't Match Exactly.
