appliqué--applipops

One thing I can do but am clumsy with is appliqué. I will try this coming year to see if I can become better at it.
I invested in a full set of Applipops. They are a great invention and do exactly what they propose to do: make turned under circles ready to appliqué.

By giving myself a year of steady work with it I hope my technique improves.
We shall see!

Sounds and looks like a great idea! Do you need to starch the fabric before using? Looking forward to seeing where you go with this project.

Mystic Quilter: yes! They recommend Stay Flo starch.

I'm no good at hand applique and tend to do it by machine. Nothing as thing as those little circles though. It will be great to see how your applique project evolves.

Looks like balcony work!

I'm relatively good applique except for circles, so I got a full set of the Applipops for Christmas and they are great!! I no longer live in fear of circles. Good luck with your applique journey. I love your quilts and your blog.
