Sunday's Pleasure #2- Quilt w/Applique

"Sunday's Best"

by Cheri Payne@ Wednesday's Best Quilt

Fabrics: "Reflections of an era past"

by Paula Barnes  @Marcus Brothers Fabrics ,

"Williamsburg Sampler"

@Baum Textiles for the borders

 and scraps from Jo Morton's lines

for the applique

Finished size: 14" x 28"

I saw many many of Cheri Payne's

shop samplers during our shop visits this time.

I mean all over at all four shops

besides at The Wool Lady.

I instantly fell in love with

her primitive quilt style with the applique.

Stained fabrics, raw edge applique and etc.

I've just started the applique part

and using Primitive whip stitch

with YLI Quilting thread in black

as Cheri suggested in her pattern.

For the background,

I used "Aged Muslin" @Marcus Fabrics

at my first time this time.

Do you see the "aged" effect

with the creases and stains

besides my bad ironing job?

I love that aged look!

"soot&ashes " Block #1-8 by Cheri Payne

Speaking of Cheri's quilt,

I also jumped on the bandwagon of

her free mystery quilt project

 hosted over at her blog.

They are all nice and simple blocks so far

and I'm enjoing making them a lot :)

And I'm planning to stain the blocks
once they are all assembled
to give it a vintage primitive look like Cheri's.

Ms. Limo: Mommy, I think it's about time for cookies!
