“Peggy’s Puzzle” is an original pattern for a table topper or a wall hanging designed with beginners in mind.  Each 15″ block covers the basics of hand-applique……circles, stems, bias strips, layering and points.

The patterns for the 4 blocks and border are free to download on my website Simple Bird Studio.   There are also some Youtube videos to go along with each block.

And,  here is “Peggy’s Puzzle” finally finished!  Rose Bell from Elite Quilting did the stunning machine quilting!!

Okay…it’s not exactly finished.  I still have to bind it!

My addiction of handpiecing hexies continues.  I am using Inklingo to print my shapes.  I just have to fill in the last of the beige section and add the dark brown border.  Will it stop there, or will I continue on?  Good question!

A week ago I picked up the latest copy of Quiltmania and these house blocks were on the cover. Since I am trying really hard to use up my stash, I thought this quilt would be a good place to start! Too much fun!

Til next time….
