One Block at a Time

 



One stem at a time.

One leaf at a time.

Machine appliqué work is underway
for my current AHIQ challenge named Forty-Six.




When the green bobbin ran out,
I changed to the purple bobbin/thread
and started on the tulips.

I'll need to switch back and finish
the rest of the stems and leaves
before I can complete those tulips,
but at least I can now see
how some of the blocks will look.

Onward . . .

Yes, changing threads all the time is my least favorite part of machine appliqueing...but it really is worth it in the end. What a pretty tulip...hugs, Julierose

So pretty! I think batiks are really good for this application. Can't wait to see the rest!

Your tulips are gorgeous. Love the colors and the way they sway in the breeze.
