My First Machine Applique

Mum complained that the Charlie I made for my sister is nicer than hers!! Looking back at the pic from my previous post, I must say there’s a plain ‘canvas’ for me to ‘play’ with.

And with my new machine to experiment with, I thought I try my hand with some applique.

I used the blanket stitch from my new machine to applique the leaves.
Then I made two yo-yos and stacked them up.
Next, I top it up with a button and…
ta-da..a flower !!!

Yup, I still prefer to leave the rest of the ‘canvas’ empty.
Looks ‘clean’ as we should be doing…..
cleaning and greening the earth by using reusable shopping bags!
