Get ready to embark on a creative adventure with our Raw-Edge Flower Collection! This collection features 10 exquisite quilt blocks; each created using the raw-edge appliqué technique. If you've never tried raw-edge appliqué before, let us introduce you to this exciting and versatile technique! Raw-edge appliqué has a unique twist compared to traditional embroidery designs. Instead of a finishing stitch around the outside edge, the edges are left raw, creating a distinct and artistic look. It adds a touch of whimsy and texture to your creations, making them truly stand out. When working with raw-edge appliqué, keeping a few things in mind is important. When trimming your appliqués, you don't need to trim them as closely as you would in other techniques. Leave about 1/8" of fabric around the edge past the stitch line to ensure a secure attachment. This slight margin of fabric adds to the raw-edge aesthetic and creates a charming and organic feel. The beauty of raw-edge appliqué is that it allows you to experiment with various fabrics. While we chose floral fabrics and a solid shade of blue for our stitch-outs, you can explore a world of possibilities. Get creative and try out funky fabrics like wool, denim, sweater, or jersey fabrics. Each fabric choice will bring its own unique texture and character to the design, making each block a true work of art. These raw-edge flower blocks can be used on their own to create a charming wall hanging or quilt, and they can also be combined with other Anita Goodesign collections. The versatility of these designs allows you to mix and match with your other favorite collections, creating endless possibilities for your quilting projects. To cater to your specific needs, each of the 10 blocks comes in 5 different sizes, giving you flexibility and options when it comes to designing and arranging your quilt. Whether you're a seasoned quilter or just starting out, the Raw-Edge Flower Collection will ignite your creativity and inspire you to create something truly remarkable.
