Embroidery Machine applique

 Not everything becomes a quilt.  I decided to use this pattern I bought in New York on a Wool Row by Row adventure.  I decided to make some placements.  I had purchase some Bosal Craft Tex fusible placemat on sale a decade or so ago.  I used some cotton batting and fabric with some hand dyes and Cherrywood scraps for the applique.  


The corners do not lie flat I think I should have gathered the binding at the corners so that it lay better.  Maybe they will relax a bit with use.  I am off to digitize a couple more block patterns.  It has been so long since I did any machine applique that I had to relearn the software.  I should make some notes and put them with my embroidery module so that I can remember how to do it in the future and shorten the relearning curve.  Lots of fun.

    1. I do like this fabric. I bought it because I thought it would be good background for Sue and Billy but I will keep my eye open for similar botanicals to have in the stash. There was a really nice Art Gallery one I saw on Instagram.
