Item:

Wall Hanging

Skill Level:

Novice

Basic Skills Necessary:

You should already know how to use a sewing machine and some of the fancier stitches. Preferable, you would also have knowledge of fusible applique and cutting out fabrics using rotary cutting tools. If not, you can still learn by referring to quilting books that teach these methods.
Machine fused applique is the easiest applique method. So don't feel afraid to give this method a try; if you haven't already done so before.

Pattern Description:

I really enjoy making small wall hanging quilts with fused applique designs, and also love flowers. So, here is a design that will be quick and easy to make.

This PDF pattern has colored illustrations, clear instructions, and full-size templates for the applique pieces that have already been reversed for the fusible applique process. Use my fabric choices as your guide; and have fun with this project.
