Wool Applique Stitch-Along (First Block)

In today's video I'll be making the first block in the 2024 hand wool applique "block of the month" from Wonderfil. The twist is that I'm going to be quilting by machine instead. Hand stitched wool applique can look really great, but for some people who have to work around challenges (like arthritis in my case), the hand stitching can be really difficult. That shouldn't stop you from enjoying the many great wool applique projects that are available. This is going to be a fun project, so I hope you enjoy, and stay tuned for more episodes! Be sure to watch my last video on making a stitch library. It will be very helpful for this project.    • Starting a Wool Applique Stitch-along (By ...   Disclaimer: This video is not sponsored, and Wonderfil isn't helping produce these videos, but they did sell me the project kit at a discount. Also, the supplies I have listed below for this stitch library are Amazon affiliate links. If you use them to purchase your supplies, I will get a small amount, but it will not increase your costs. Nevertheless, these are my favorites for this kind of work. Materials: Thread list on my blog site: https://bjfabricartist.com/blog/f/cho...
