Ok, so I got the latest issue of Quilter's Newsletter Magazine and really
liked the quilt that had ovals appliqued to 4.5x5.5" rectangles. It
intrigued me. But it wasn't until I watched one of the current episodes
posted on the Simply Quilts site yesterday that I realized there was a "new"
way to do them! (Plus I already had the book from the author on the SQ
episode.)
http://www.hgtv.com/hgtv/pac_ctnt_988/text/0,,HGTV_22056_58466,00.html
So this afternoon I started playing. It's now quarter till midnight and I'm
forcing myself to stop making blocks. I have 16 made! (I did stop for a
while to make a turkey breast and mashed potatoes, etc.) My sewing room
floor is flooded with batiks I've thrown all over the place! Help!

Here's the technique. Only I'm doing ovals like the quilt in the QNM
article. I need to get some more Avery's permanent glue stick tomorrow.
Mine is old and gummy. And I tried another one and found out why this
particular brand is recommended....it worked much better than my "quilters'
fabric glue stick". I just checked the QNM site, but they don't have a
picture of the cool oval quilt. Now it's 1:15 and I can't get to sleep.
But I did make myself leave the sewing room and try to watch some TV to wind
down.

Great video of this technique, and some lovely quilts.
http://www.sharonschamber.com/Gallery.htm Sharon Schamber has a "similar" method but she uses liquid
glue delivered through a thin nozzle of syrunge. (I think
it was Elmer's glue - which I am not familiar with but
sounds like it is a common commodity "over there"). She
claims she can piece curves far quicker than she can
applique them. I've always had a blind spot when it comes
to putting glue on fabrics (I don't even use iron-ons much)
but I have SS's book and DVD and I tried her technique. I
was very slow but I can see where it would get much quicker
as you gained confidence.

I'm taking the applique class from Sharon in Paducah this April. I'll have
to "compare and contrast" the two methods. I'm pretty good at machine
applique in terms of raw edge (satin stitch, blanket stitch) so I doubt this
is as fast, but it does look more like hand applique.
