I started this post on Sunday afternoon and intended to finish it Sunday night when I got home from church. Unfortunately at church, I fell down a flight of stairs, with a concussion and taken by ambulance to a trauma center in Charlotte. I was released yesterday, and am wearing a heart monitor as the doctors think my heart has been beating at a fast rate and may be what caused me to black out on the steps and fall down the stairs. Crystals in my ears were also dilodged and I am going through therapy to get them back in place. I begin out out patient therapy on Tuesday.
This is my Pemberley and what I intended to post Sunday night. I have completed the center and am starting to work on the corner flower pots.
I like to draw lines to show the placement of the applique. I drawn the line inside the applique lines so that the lines will not show up when I place the applique in place. |
My applique patters are cut from freezer paper, then traced on the from of the fabric. I then trim the fabric to within 1/8" - 1/4" of the drawn line, and do needle turn applique. |
