Prepping for Applique

In order to stiffen the fabric to applique it, I ironed freezer paper with the waxed side down on to the outer edges of the fabric pieces.

Here are the applique pieces for Grandmother's Fan.

It will look something like this when finished with the addition of some lace at the edge of the fan.



Here are the applique pieces for Dresden Plate.

It will look something like this when finished.

Hi Christina,

I think of myself as a beginning quilter :) I got started by taking some classes at my local votech/ community college. Quilting is so much fun!

Maybe after the semester is over I can do a "beginners" post for you over Chrismas break :)
