Saturday sew in

Been busy on my borders today, I made up all the flowers and then ironed them onto the borders


First I folded and ironed in a crease along the centres as a guide to placement


Next I ironed the stems and middle flower


I popped on the end flowers
 Leaves next




All done and looking pretty!


Now that the applique is in place, I can start sewing the blanket stitch around them.

I haven't decided yet whether to put some larger applique flowers in the corner blocks or sew a quilting motif instead, decisions for another day thou.

I hope you had a lovely sewing day too!  :)
