Welcome back to our celebration of Sewing Month 2016!
We hope you've been having fun with our weekly inspiration and giveaways. There are so many video gems in our FQS vault (also known as our YouTube Channel) that we're sharing some more inspirational how-to's based on a theme. This week? Applique! We've also got a fantastic giveaway, and two people will each win a prize package valued at over $80, which includes the thread-y goodness show below - yum!
AWESOME APPLIQUE!
We know, we know - some quilters consider applique the "A word". Here at Fat Quarter Shop we think applique gets a bad rap, so we've gathered some FQS videos that will help you develop new applique skills or further develop those you may already have. Take a peek!
See, that wasn't so bad! Applique - by machine or by hand - can be painless and fun, and results in gorgeous quilts and other stitch-y projects!
GIVEAWAY #4!
This week we're giving away two Awesome Applique Prize Packs! Each lucky winner will receive a Fat Quarter Shop Tin Set, ten spools of Aurifil 80 wt Applique Thread, a package of 16 Straw Needles, Poke-A-Dots Sticky Thimbles, and one Charm Pack of Bella Solids containing assorted colors. Each Prize Pack (shown in the tray above) is valued at over $80!
To enter: Leave a comment on this blog post sharing whether you currently use applique in your quilting and sewing, or if you have yet to take on this sewing technique. Giveaway ends on 9/26/16 at 8 AM CST. The two winners will be chosen at random and announced in an update on this post by 9/28/16, and will be emailed about their prizes. Good luck and Happy Quilting!

ReplyDeleteI do some applique in my quilting
ReplyDeleteI've admired applique, especially having lived in Hawaii and getting to see the lovely local applique technique, but I still haven't tried it myself yet. Plus, my Juki is a straight-stitch only kind of gal, so maybe if I get the HZL for Chrismabirthaversary, I will give it a whirl!
ReplyDeleteI love appliqué and have completed several projects including quilts. I especially like using applique in baby and children's clothing. In fact, at my daughter's baby shower guests completed appliqué onesies and hung them on a clothesline after completing them. The guests loved it and what fun onesies to dress baby in later. I can't wait to try Aurifil appliqué thread!
ReplyDeleteI am one on those quilters who has not tried applique yet. Hopefully the videos will take away the fear. I love paper piecing but also really like how applique looks. So will definitely have to give it a try.
ReplyDeleteHaven't done any appliqué yet...watching all of the tutorials! Can't wait to give it a try!

ReplyDeleteI use applique in my quilting. So far it has just been to put the name of the expected baby on the quilt backing, just to personalise it a little. Usually it is well received!

ReplyDeleteI like the look of appliqué but I can't do it too well - I've tried needle turn (admittedly once lol) but no luck. I can do machine appliqué and I can do raw edge appliqué with a nice blanket stitch but turning under eludes me!
ReplyDeleteI've just started to really do applique with my quilts, but I'm absolutely loving it.

I had trouble figuring out how to make it look right at the first but I think I now have the hang of it after using Joanna's technique from Fig Tree. The starch is awesome!!!!

You inspire me and I'm sure all of us to try new things and get out of our comfort zone, Kimberly, and I thank you for that!!!! Thanks for this awesome giveaway!! I would be honored!!!
ReplyDeleteI have used applique in the past and will be using it on the quilt I am currently making. I made the Happiness Quilt by Monica Poole, and that now lives on my bed. I am currently embroidering blocks for the Life is Beautiful quilt by Helen Stubbings. I absolutely love working with Aurifil thread too.

ReplyDeleteI love hand appliqué. It's nice to have hand work to do while "watching" tv or anytime you have to wait around for an appointment. I find machine appliqué more daunting and less forgiving and whenever possible, I substitute hand appliqué.
ReplyDeleteI love doing applique. I have done 4 quilts this year with applique. Some machine and some by hand.
ReplyDeleteLove the look of hand applique! I'm working on the Cozy Christmas sew along.

Thank you for the chance to play. Candice Harris, So Cal.
ReplyDeleteI am taking on my first English Paper Pieced quilt with some applique in it. I was shocked to realize how much I enjoyed the slower process when quilting, as I'm not really known for my patience! I've gotten to where I applique any time I can, so to jump to EPP next just seemed logical!
ReplyDeleteI have yet to try appliqué, but I'm in a block of the month club and we have some appliqué blocks coming up!! I'm excited and apprehensive about it, but these videos will sure help!
ReplyDeleteI did some applique six months ago at a class given by a friend, with MUCH hesitation. Now, I just can't get enough of it!!!

ReplyDelete, great tips. Thanks for the chance to win fun items.
Hey there, I am completely new to quilting and have still yet to figure out all the equipment I'm going to need. I have a beginners quilting course this coming weekend, I want to be able to make a memorial quilt from my younger brothers t-shirts (he passed away a few years back from cancer) this would be a fabulous start to my quilting life :) good luck everyone x
ReplyDeleteI do a lot of fusible applique, only handstitched though, haven't managed to be able to use my sewing machine for that.
ReplyDeleteNope, I haven't tried it yet, but after watching your YouTube channel with Lori Holt the other day about it, (with the Sew in interfacing), I have been really eager to try.
ReplyDeleteYes, I enjoy using applique in my quilts, but generally complete the pieces with my machine. I'm anxious to become a better hand appliquer, if that's a word. Thank you for the visual instructions.
ReplyDeleteI have three applique projects in the works, One using traditional needleturn, one Broderie Perse, and the other using fusible. I'm trying out different techniques and trying to find my niche.
ReplyDeleteSo far I have mostly done machine appliqué. It really does add someone special to quilts. Someday when my kids are older maybe I will have time for more hand appliqué.
ReplyDelete
