Thank you! I made this quilt as an entry to QuiltCon. This is though one of those quilts you would not have seen it. AKA - it got rejected :D

Thank You! This bear applique was probably the first applique I did with this level of detail. It includes quite a few small pieces :)

Thank you for watching! Will you consider making appliques following the two techniques?

You are most welcome! I hope my video guide helped!

Thank you, Sue! As I try to avoid as much as possible tedious needle turn applique work, I developed my skills and approach to turned edge machine applique :) Very happy this video helped you!

Vielen dank! Da gibt es eine Vorlage zu dem Quilt, vielleicht etwas für dich? Liebe Grüße!

Thanks! If you like the appliques, here's a sew along video to make them yourself 😉🤗 kzbin.info/www/bejne/kJOlpp2Vj6qKZ7c

Thank you for watching the video! Have you already made the quilt or it's work in progress or you are only planning to start?

Wow, Barbara, Thank you for sharing your feedback! In case you will be trying out the method would love to see your work!

Hi! I am super glad to hear this was helpful. I tried to make a really comprehensive applique guide. As for the pen, I am using one I bougth from my local supply shop, but I can't really recommend it, as the lines disappear way too quick. I can come back to you once I find something decent on the market. Best Wishes!

Vielen Dank!! Da gibt's ein methode video für die Bäume Applikationen, vielleicht es ist von Interesse? kzbin.info/www/bejne/kJOlpp2Vj6qKZ7c

Vielen vielen Dank!! Grüsse aus Wien

Vielen Dank! Hast Du Applikationen nach dem Method gemacht? Grüße aus Wien.

Thank you!!! I have made the same quilt in teal-grey as well. If you are curious you can find it here. magiclittledreams.com/blogs/quilting-stories/blue-baby-boy-quilt

I literally made my day with this comment! I want to get people try more applique work, as it opens up creativity with quilts. Have a great day!

Thank You!! I have now made further video guides to assist people making the quilt. Were you perhaps thinking on making the quilt? Here is one of the videos. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z5KYan95gbqVos0

Thank You, Dear! That is also the point of me making the videos - to get people excited and less afraid of trying out applique! And sometimes all it takes is an easy method:) So did you jump into the applique waters?

Wooow! I am sooo happy to read this! You know when I starting making applique method guides and videos that was exacly my motivation - to get more people into applique. Adding appliques to a quilt opens up the quilt story much more. Thank you!

Thank you for taking the time! I would love to hear your experience with the method if you decide to do anything follow it. Regarding the fusible interfacings, please check my blog post here, I cover the types of interfacing and have links to the products I use myself. Hope it helps! www.magiclittledreams.com/tutorial-turned-edge-applique-with-interfacing

Susan, I have now! :) I just released two videos. One on how to embroider the stave and the second one on joining the three quilt top pieces together. Do you have the pattern and or planning to make the quilt? Here is the video link to the stave embroidery process. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z5KYan95gbqVos0

I am glad the video comes useful! Can you share your FB page? I will check it out :) In case it helps, there's also a detailed step by step guide on my website. www.magiclittledreams.com/tutorial-raw-edge-applique-with-fusible-web

Thank You, Angela! It took me a while to bring it to this design, but I loved the challenging process :)

Thank you, Pippa! I hope you can put the two methods mentioned in the video to good use! Which particular one do you have in mind?

Hmm. Did you try looking online? But otherwise, what about using starch or fabric glue for gluing the seam allowance?

@@MagicLittleDreams I live in Uganda shipping takes time and items are crazy expensive taxes and stuff I will look into using starch or fabric glue I have seen those two around thanks a bunch

@@Sewcreativebykathy Uganda. Wow! Incredible to connect in one way or the other with someone so far away! Fabric grade glue should do the trick. It could be a bit more work, but I see this doing myself. Best of luck!

@@MagicLittleDreams thank you so much

Thank You, Dear! Do you plan to use the method? Perhaps remaking the butterflies themselves? :) Best Wishes!

@@MagicLittleDreams Yes, I will use the method for flowers and some insects and animals with colour. Thank you again, it is neat.

@@gloriaodiah7493 It is really great to hear it will come to good use! I would love to see your work. Is there a way for you to share? I have myself used it for flowers and for a big dragonfly applique. Perhaps it is of use to you? You can get the impressions on both on my website: www.magiclittledreams.com/applique

Thank You, Dear! Should you have any questions just let me know.

I am very glad the video is informative and it was worth your time!

Dear Dorothy, Thank you for letting me know! I have contacted my server provider for this! I hope this gets solved asap! You can also find the pattern on my etsy shop, here: www.etsy.com/shop/MagicLittleDreams Thank you for your appreciation! With the quilt I really aimed to portray that flowing feeling of lightness and connection with yourselves when listening to a song or a tune that really touches us to the core. I am not a musician myself and to hear from an actual musician that I hit the right string is very pleasing indeed! Thank You!!

By the way, for the videos, they are all on my youtube channel, here: kzbin.info/door/7OzM_KxnNUTbN71o5vsCRA I am working on a couple of new ones as we speak. It takes time and I thus hope they are fun to watch but also especially the sew along videos do come handy! Best Wishes!

I have just received a message, that the issue should be now fixed. Could you try to enter the website once more? Thank You!

Thank you!! This is not meant to be a comprehensive technique guide, rather a sew along for the particular appliques. But so great to hear that this still gives a strong base to apply the technique for different shapes! Thank You a lot for watching!

Thank you for your feedback! I appreciate that you took the time to watch the video and give feedback! I indeed see the problem with turning a big chunk of fabric under an applique shape. The excess fabric may create markings on the dark solid fabric that washes more than the rest of the applique. Yet, the problem with trimming the seam allowance off for machine applique is that it is very hard to keep all the small fabric edges under the applique shape while sewing. As a result, some threads and raw edges are likely to stick out after stitching. Therefore, in the video I demonstrate, how to fold a large seam allowance in a way that does not create the bulkiness you are addressing. Using this folding method, the seam allowance fabric folds evenly and the edges of the folded fabric matches the edges of the applique shape. Thus, there are no disordered fabric folds that start to show after a couple of washes. I never had a problem with this method, as the tips of the trees will not wash more, than the rest of the applique. Having said that, even a single layer of seam allowance may become visible on darker solid fabrics after extensive washing. This is a general problem for places with seam allowance. Let me know what you think!

Thank you! With that then, no excuses to start appliqueing! ;)

Thank You! Great music on your channel! Would you have some of your own music that could fit a sew along like that? :)
