Applique

So I get really excited when I learn a new skill to use on my sewing machine since I've never taken a class or anything. Chris's cousin asked me to help her with her baby quilt so I've been working on it and started sewing her baby's name on it and had taken a break when I stumbled on some instructions for appliqueing things. I guess I could have figured this out on my own, but basically you can use the setting for stitching button-holes to secure the edges of whatever you're sewing. Here is a picture of my appliqueing in progress, I think it's turning out pretty well, hopefully Chels does too! Here is a link to the complete instructions in case you're interested: http://sewmamasew.com/blog2/?p=518
