FABRIC
When placing appliqué fabrics, one strategy was to try
and not let two of the same pattern touch. We found that
Prim by Lori Holt for Riley Blake Designs was a great fabric
collection to use, because it has multiple patterns with the
same background color.
THREADS
We coordinated our embroidery thread colors with each
appliqué fabric before starting. Also, using either a shade
lighter or darker than the appliqué fabric can draw more
attention toward the blanket stitch outline. For a more subtle
blanket stitch, try matching your thread to your fabric.
NOTIONS
Make sure you have a sharp pair of appliqué scissors close
by for these quilt blocks!
