My good friend and award winning quilt artist Ann Fahl has written a new booklet entitled –

Applique Ann’s Way.

This booklet is full of great tips and tricks.

So many new quilters stay away from applique, when in reality it is the most flexible way to achieve a design.

Ann has include 6 favorite methods of machine applique, they include satin stitch, open zigzag, decorative stitch, messy free motion, free motion straight stitch, and Florentine Edge Applique. Half of these methods are with the feed dogs up and half are with the feed dogs down.

You should go to Ann’s website and order this inexpensive yet priceless booklet!! You could become an award winning quilter too!!!
