Last year, I fell in love with the Bloom quilt by Lori Holt and decided to make it and to use needle-turn applique instead of machine applique just so it would take longer.*
Soon after beginning, this project was renamed "Abandoned Hand Applique Project #87" and was set aside.
Until now:
I pulled out all of my happy/bright fabric scraps, some plain white fabric for backgrounds, and my gorgeous applique thread. I use WonderFil InvisiFil 100 weight polyester thread for applique. It makes a gloriously invisible applique stitch and I love it!
I now know what my travel sewing project will be for 2017. And now that I've said I'm going to finish this quilt, I won't set it aside again... right?
Hold me to this, quilters!

Don't judge me.
