*** The Project ***
Our December Aurifil Designer of the Month is the very fun Laura Piland! She brings in our 12th block for the 2019 Aurifil Designer of the Month Series!
Each month when I interview the designer, they also create a block for our theme. You will love the tradition that inspired Laura's block!
My Interview and block are At the Aurifil Website, read and come for my fabric picking tip!
The fabric I'm working with
- A set of Green from 'Well Said'
- A variety of peach fabrics
- Navy fabrics like this Dot & this bow tie
- With some White.

*** Do we NEED perfect circles? ***
- If you are on 'Team Perfect' look around for a round object that is close to the size of the circles. It can be a bit bigger or smaller and will not affect the impact of the block.
- For those on 'Team Close Enough' with me, here is a tip. Use a print background and print circles, it helps to keep you from looking for perfection
*** Fusible Applique by Machine ***
- I love doing the 'donut method' for applique. It keeps the shapes soft!
- My Teach Me to Applique book has ALL my tips!
20% off Heat N Bond Lite is the only Fusible I use
