It is the first of your patterns I have bought and I am really looking forward to it. I just need to buy some more fabric first!

I'm only doing KF&F projects one or two at a time...each new KF&F project kind of take over my life. <br />My 15 or so boxes full of non-Kaffe unfinished projects are amazingly easy to ignore when new KF&F fabrics, books or Kim patterns arrive on the scene..... KF&F projects are the new anti-depressants! Y'all help us smile. Thank you Kim, Liza, Kaffe, Philip and Brandon for all your creativity and sharing it all with us.sylvihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09163093787658443761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5438520712984321582.post-24452179198403485122012-05-17T19:56:03.467-04:002012-05-17T19:56:03.467-04:00Nice to hear that people are reading it!

I was only using that as an example of how a large floral can be used to do a tree so that the tree has a few colours in it. Check out these fabrics, I've found them to be rather useful:<br />Forest of Arden, Shirt Stripes, Lotus Leaves, Plink, Begonia to name a few. I bet if you go through your fabric stash, you will find a lot of things.<br />You're good, finishing a project at a time!!

Thank you again for helping me yesterday on how to do links. <br />I have a drawer full of of those plastic template stacks. They do hexagons, octagons, pentagons and many others, just have to find things to do with them. Every time I go to the quilt show, I've ended up buying another stack.

I am also left handed; and look at fabrics for the possibilities with appliqué.It fun was to read about what you see.

I was worried, but was very pleased to see I CAN do the freezer paper & Best Press method even for the coral looking trees! YIPEEE YAY <br />Sooooo excited !
