Good Morning, Quilters!
It’s always sad to see the school buses round the corner…
It’s Back to School here in Minnesota-a bit earlier this year.
Honestly…it’s mixed emotions for most of us--It means more quilting time!!!
Let’s kick off the school year with a Delicious Apple!
A NEW GRADING SYSTEM
Starting today, I’ll be giving each tutorial a Grade–Beginner, Easy or Intermediate
See all the FREE MOTION QUILT Tutorials HERE
I plan to grade ALL of the tutorials so that you will be able to search for your skill level. (This will take some time.)
***Did you know there is a “Search” box on the right side of every page just above my portrait??***
Also, if YOU disagree with a grade…Please let me know!
Today’s tutorial: The Delicious Apple = EASY
THE DELICIOUS APPLE QUILT TUTORIAL
Begin by drawing two parallel lines. (The lines in this tutorial are 1-1/4 inch apart.)
Begin stitching on the bottom line. Stitch a fat letter “c” –brush the top line and end below the top line.
Stitch straight up to create the stem. Stitch across two-three stitches then back down to the drawn line.
Finish stitching the stem, then stitch the right side of the apple by mirroring the left side.
When you reach the bottom line stitch a slight wave to create the bottom of the Apple.
Stitch on the bottom line back to the right to create the next apple in the chain.
Or add a little something extra!
Now wasn’t that EASY?
Makes a great border on any quilt, or computer cover, or school bag, OR
Combine it with the EASY as PIE tutorial…and you have a theme going!!!
With the kiddies off at school…
Let’s get some deep housecleaning done
Let’s do our paperwork
Let’s go to the gym
Who am I kidding!?
Let’s QUILT!!!
