I know what it's like to have a question and not have someone to answer me RIGHT NOW!!! ROFL<br /><br />Barb, there is a dvd by the Piece o' cake gals that is WONDERFUL. It's called Becky Goldsmith & Linda Jenkins Teach You to Applique the Piece O' Cake Way, it takes you through every part of applique with close ups and everything. You can keep going back to each part until you get it mastered....just a suggestions for those like me that needs visuals :0)<br /><br />Ok, this is a really long comment, I'll stop now :o)<br /><br />CrispyCrispyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03784813169069471560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1906296252131082397.post-58807657391374747582009-12-21T21:36:56.609-05:002009-12-21T21:36:56.609-05:00Ooooh that is such a pretty shade of green, it wil...Ooooh that is such a pretty shade of green, it will be gorgeous when you done!

But is this your first applique project or first Hawaiian applique?<br /><br />This design may be a difficult project for "first", but go for it - just realize you have one that is more challenging.<br /><br />Plus, as previously mentioned, sometimes having it in a frame is easier. I find doing great points (and sharp innies) much easier in a frame.<br /><br />SewCalGal<br />www.sewcalgal.blogspot.comSewCalGalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02062059207544865569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1906296252131082397.post-33981139459349396602009-12-21T18:40:07.964-05:002009-12-21T18:40:07.964-05:00I will stick to piecing.
