SS calls the method you are doing with the batiks now
"Piecelique". She has separate DVD/patterns/etc for her
applique methods. Which class will you be doing - applique
or piecelique? I would love to be able to see her doing her
piecelique method. Please let us know about the class in
April.

: I'm taking the applique class from Sharon in Paducah this
April. I'll have

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.
