Cutouts

Continuing the work on the applique for the quilt, I drew the rest of the cutout lines and stitched the lines by machine. Then carefully cutting close to the stitches, the resulting applique is very cool and finished! The large design will lie in the center of the queen size bed.

I have not yet purchased the backing fabric and will do so this weekend. Next will be to sandwich the layers, baste in place, then start machine quilting of the 52" by 60" piece.
