Sewing Machine Day

Now that we probably have enough 3″ blocks…

Let’s make this cute sewing machine today!

 

I had a hard time deciding what black

Thimbleberries fabric to choose from my cart!

that I designed specifically for our quilt.

Note that it is reversed for you.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I used the freezer paper technique

for the sewing machine appliqué.

If you’re not familiar with freezer paper applique,

just trace the design onto the paper side of the freezer paper.

Cut out the sewing machine.

Fuse the wax side to the wrong side of fabric.

Cut out sewing machine with 1/8″ seam allowance.

I used my wonderful Apliquick Bars

and Bohin Glue pen to glue the seam allowance

to the freezer paper.

If you’re not familiar with the technique

of inner corners, outer corners and points,

take a look at Rosa’s wonderful YouTube video

for easy instructions that really work!

Feel free to use fusible web, needle turn,

or whatever method of appliqué is your favorite.

Show us your blocks at my Sewing With Susan FB Group.

We want to see your progress too!
