Poinsettias on Point
Filed Under A Merry Little Christmas to Appliqué, Appliqué |
Pam’s at it again! My appliqué friend Pam Crooks has kindly made samples for several of my books. Here’s her elegant treatment of the poinsettia design in
A Merry Little Christmas to Appliqué.

The rich fuchsia batik creates a sumptuous holiday look. Pam used a prepared-edge technique, using glue to turn the edges of the motifs over freezer-paper templates before hand-appliquéing. The flower centers are yoyos! What a great idea.
Speaking of Pam, I wrote a post on my appliqué blog about Pam’s red-and-green AQSG study quilt. Over the weekend I saw it again. She’s now finished appliquéing the swags and it’s ready to quilt!
Also check out Pam’s Growing Hearts to Appliqué quilt here at the Show & Tell Center.
Until next time,
Kay
