WIP Wednesday — The Last of the Denim Appliquéd Squares

Posted on April 20, 2016April 21, 2016 by Martha

I’m relieved that the creative part of this project is over, because I seriously could not think up one more design.  There’s a replacement sun in this group  —  you might remember that I already made one, but my daughter nixed it. I have one more square to make, but it will be the quilt label, and I’ll probably just appliqué my initials and the date.

I purchased a charm group of 1930s reproduction 6″ squares to back the blocks, because I didn’t want to use my vintage fabric. The appliquéd blocks and backing are sewn right sides together, and turned inside out just like a pillow. I don’t even have to whipstitch the opening because it’ll be sewn up when I blanket stitch the edges with perle cotton in the next step.

    The applique on denim quilt is exquisite, a special beauty because of it’s simplicity. You are humming along with both creativity and master techniques. Thank you for sharing. Oh, the sun is spectacular. I am inspired to add something similar to a pieced quilt of falling leaves, and I appreciate the idea of a two-tone source for the sunshine.
