Joanna's Appliqué



This is a little jacket Hannah got for Joanna, to go with a blue and yellow flowered skirt she is making her for Easter.  It needed a bit of 'fancying up', so I appliquéd blue and yellow flowers on it and sewed a narrow strip of the skirt fabric onto the side bands.


If I do any turned-edge appliqués much smaller than the petals on these flowers, I'm going to have to do them under a microscope!  Some of them are about half the size of my little fingernail.

Here are the little pieces, glued together, but still loose.






And here are the flowers appliquéd on the jacket.
