Very cool! And beautiful! Very creative idea! So, you are saying during our practice sessions, save our samples and use them in other projects! Love it! THANK YOU SO MUCH!

You’ll be so glad to have beautiful samples ready to go. Thanks!

Love the idea of saving tryout pieces for another project! Thanks for this tutorial, Gail.

Hi Mary, Saving samples for reverse appliques is such a time-saver and you'll have a beautiful way to showcase it. Thanks for watching!

You always come up with some great ideas! I’m trying to incorporate decorative serger stitching in all of my quilts (I already sew the binding on with a serger-quicker and more accurate)

[@GailPatriceDesign]

Hi Karen, There are so many beautiful decorative techniques that only a serger can do. Serger Stitches (both overlock and coverstitch modes) create dimension and texture to quilts as well as other projects. Do you use fusible thread in the lower looper when you bind your quilts? Thanks for watching!

@@GailPatriceDesign I did once; but I find Elmer’s school glue a lot less expensive and I use it on both sides so I get everything staying where I want it without clips/pins

[@GailPatriceDesign]

@@KarenQuilts4Fun That's a great alternate choice. If a different product works well and produces a great result, definitely use it. Thanks for the suggestion!
