What was your inspiration?
Sarah was, really. She made me want to try hand applique for the first time ever. I bought a book once that is all hand applique quilts and I haven't even tried making any of them because I'm scared to try, but thanks to Sarah and this class, I feel like I can do it now.
What are you most proud of?
The entire wall hanging. I LOVE it. There was a moment when I couldn't decide which binding to use and I asked around and half the people said blue and half said orange. Ultimately I choose the blue because I really felt like the orange was just too much and too bright, and I really felt like the blue just worked somehow.
Also I'm pretty proud that after washing none of my appliqued pieces fell off... LOL. I was terrified that I was going to lift the washer lid and find pieces of applique everywhere.
What advice would you give someone starting this project?
Just do it. Even if it's not perfect {mine's not either} it will still be beautiful.
