Roseville Album and my block #2 completed...

 I like how on the back of this block the stitches remind me of neon because of the black background...

I began this block on January 21, 2011.  There have been a LOT of changes in my life from those first stitches to these last stitches...  I marvel at the stories a quilt keeps.  ; )

And, since I now have everything unpacked, I started my third Roseville Album block preparation today.

Questions...

How do you handle these kinds of applique pieces?  Pieces that have applique on top of applique, or applique pieces with straight edges...

I do a technique that I sort of made up.  I call it unit construction.  I assemble the applique shape, and then applique the whole piece to the background.  For instance, I did this with the big flower bowls in the long panels of Kim's Flower Pots design, and again with the birds nest and large flower in the Squirrel panel in Kim's Roseville Album design.

One more question.  What would you folks think if this blog moves over to typepad so others could join the Glorious Applique blog and share in this stitching journey...?!
