Q is for Quail


This block is pretty straight forward and easy. I used a quicker methods for getting the applique pieces ready...using doubled up freezer paper and starch to turn under the edges before sewing. I decided to do this because I wanted to know exactly where the pieces fit so I could mark all the wording, star and head curl first and get that part sewn BEFORE I put down the applique. I hate having to sew embroidery and crimp up all my new fabric and stitches with a hoop!
