Hand Applique Quilts!!

Many of my customers do amazing hand appliqué on their quilts.  It always amazes me how beautiful they are, and I think part of that reason is because not only is their handwork impeccable, but  I just don’t like that “HW” word  (hand work)  very much, so anyone that does it on a large scale such as these quilts, just amazes me.

The time that goes in to each of these quilts is astounding and they should all be proud of their workmanship.

For those of you, who like me, don’t really like HW very much or just don’t know much about it,  here are a couple of explanations/videos that may help:
