PERFECT PLACEMENT
This fun-filled tile scene has been designed
perfectly to appeal to the younger ones! With
so many spots for standard appliqués, we had a
blast choosing what fabrics and other materials
to incorporate into the blocks to carry the fun
look of the design. A good rule of thumb to
practice throughout making your blocks is to
back any cottons or more delicate materials,
such as silk or satins, with an iron-on fusible
interfacing. This will ensure the materials hold
up to all those stitched details without puckering
or pulling. For even more unique texture in
your scene’s elements, don’t shy away from
uncommon materials! We experimented with
both indoor and outdoor decor fabrics, like
burlap and synthetic weaves. Just remember, if it
has an open weave, use a piece of solid cotton
behind it!
Now the springs of the deep
and the floodgates of the
heavens had been closed,
and the rain had stopped
falling from the sky. The water
receded steadily from the earth.
