here it is in print, wendy reed's "no bake applique" that took a 2nd place ribbon in the road 2ca show. done potholder method, it's traditional applique to the max. a real honor and so deserved, too. *** quiet day in lobsterville....waiting for sun to emerge from heavy cloud cover but thankfully no rain. no plans at all, a free day, maybe some sewing, maybe a nap....even so, a good day all around!
Thanks for posting this Grace. I just picked mine up from Cyndi on Wednesday. Love it! My favorite magazine.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to Wendy, what an honor!
ReplyDeleteWhat is "potholder method"? I haven't heard that term
ReplyDeleteeach square is like a potholder, aka a finished block with batt and back, then sewn together....also a type of quilt as you go method...popular during civil war when ladies made quilts for the soldiers....each lady would make a block in her home and then they would get together and put the blocks together resulting in a finished quilt....
DeleteHope things are alright in your world, I worry when there's no word...
ReplyDeletePotholder method is the way I learned; back in 1982. Then it was referred to as "lap quilting" made popular by Geogia Bonesteel with her PBS show at the time. I remember, a few years later, asking my quilt teacher for permission to sew the entire top together before I layered it with batting/backing to quilt it as a whole unit! She told me that I could do that. ;)
