Applique Patterns for Hand or Machine
Free Tips
For free hand applique' pattern tips see link below. I recently added a second page with some details for actually doing the stitch. You will also find many unique award winning applique' patterns for quilts and wall hangings, suitable for hand and machine applique within the pages of this site.
Artfully Applique' offers applique' quilt patterns suitable for hand or machine applique'. All of the pattern samples shown are done with traditional needle turn. Some of the kit samples are done with a fusible product, and only because I prefer not to spend all my time making lots of samples of the same design just because the fabric becomes unavailable! All of the patterns are my original designs.
It is my desire that you find as much joy in completing applique' quilts as I found in creating applique' patterns for you. I know how precious the gift of time is and how much satisfaction comes from using that time to create beautiful applique' quilts. I strive to give you applique' quilting designs, which are worthy of your craftmanship. Quality is very important to me and your satisfaction is my top priority. If you ever find any reason to be dissatisfied with any of my products, have suggestions or need advice about completing your applique' quilting project, please write to me.

A Change in shipping!
Shipping cost - starts at $1.00 and is consistent with NEW (P.O. webpage says as of 7/5/11) normal post office rates. At 12 oz - I will use the priority flat rate, which is currently $4.80.
Quantity Discount
I have managed to figure out how to include a "quantity discount", just wasn't able to do it as a percentage of total. If you order 3 or more patterns, you will receive a discount - the minimum discount being $2.00 and the max is $25.00.

The Newest Series
It is called "In a Word" and, thus, each design will have a one-word name. OK, these are the latest in that series and, as you can see, they have taken a new 'direction'. There are some words about that on the patterns page, which you can get to by clicking on the link below the pictures. The Lizard is the latest. There is a kit for that one, not the other two (yet?). The sample is not finished - is easier to show folks the process with it this way.

All The News That's Fit To Print
Recent News! High Sierra Quilters has moved to Placerville!!! yea!! They are in the same little strip mall as $$ Store and Grocery Outlet - that's on the East side of town, (heading East) get off Hwy 50 at Schnell School Rd., turn right at end of ramp and left at the 4-way stop just a few feet away. It's about in the middle, between Grocery Outlet and $ Store (at 1444 Broadway). Sooo, if you have been wanting to take a class from me - we can now do that even it it's only you. Just call me. OR Give them a call! 530-622-9990 to request class schedule. Hope to see you there! ^_^
Also - something new: I added this webpage to something I just discovered(thanks to a jewelery making friend). It's called QFLEA and it's an online 'flea market' - except it's for small businesses with webpages - and who sell QUALITY items. You will find the link at the bottom of this page - check it out. And check out NanciesFancies in the jewelry section.
Just below all these words is a picture of the latest in the Simply (my) Flowers series - I so love violets. And below that the newest little 4-block wallhanging. I used the mini-florals (the ones that have an 'overlay'), and had to create a new one in order to have 4. Seems a nice Spring decoration - for that 'sun room' I dream about - the one with the white wicker furniture. ^_^
Am in the process of doing a sample for the redesigned lizard - the first one has remained 'on the shelf', so to speak! I have increased the circle from 8" to 10" in order to both enlarge the bodies and have the tails, while still disconnected - a lot closer! And am using 'non'-realistic fabrics - going for the Southwestern colors - brown, turquoise & coral. We'll see if anyone notices now.
As of this writing, I am attempting to type with my 'fingers crossed' - ok, just kidding, not literally. BUT, yes - during the trip to Meford and then the stop in Redding to teach, I was (painfully) aware of the kinds of noises that preceded the transmission failure 'last time'. I was a little tense on the drive home and on the way from van to cottage, stopped to tell Tom "I think the transmission is getting ready to fail again" - "I'll test drive it tomorrow night", says he. He did and it "broke" less than a mile into the drive!! I managed to get it towed the 30 miles to his work - I can say I have certainly gotten our money's worth out of the towing option!! Am now nervously awaiting the call that it is finished - and wondering how he plans to get it here/me there??? I must leave early a.m. for a class in Redding and then on to the show in Grants Pass, OR. While I realize this will all be 'old news' after today - just wanted to put it here anyway. I will update as soon as I get back! ^_^

Just an example of one of the brooches I've also been making. Most of them, including this one, are offered as pendants with the matching necklace included. You can see them all at artfullexporer - just click on the link below.
