    Pam---what a wonderful way to do applique. Your results are spectacular!!!

    I just love your block. The final design and fabrics are both terrific. I look forward to seeing this quilt as you progress.

    Are you going to have it finished by the 4th of July? :lol: :lol: :shock:

    I'll be lucky to have this block done by then. I do have 5 days off, the 3rd thru the 7th, so might get some work done on the whole.

    I do love this method. It's the best applique I've ever been able to do.

    Wow, this is slow going! Told you I'd be lucky to have this block done by July 4th. :wink: I got the last 4 leaves pinned on so that I can take it to work with me today. Hopefully I can finish them! Still have 8 flowers to do and then all the little berries.

    I took a break from that and got all the HSTs done for the 4 flag corner blocks. Got one of them done and doing the applique star. I'll take it with me too though it is probably wishful thinking that I will get to it today.

    I only cut out the fabric for one of them to make sure all was OK. The block pattern in EQ came up with all these odd measurements for the pieces like 3 3/16" and I thought there was no way I was doing that! I re-drew all the pieces so that they were even 1/4" increments.

    OMGOSH!!! I just love this Pam!! You've done so much on it. I love how you did the flag too (I figured out how to do that a couple of days ago so that's on my list to do a better flag)
