Instead of using applique in these designs you can use scraps of fabric, yarn, thread and other notions that you would normally discard. At this years embroidery party we have been stitching a design like this in class. The project goes along with a contest of which group can be the most creative. I am always amazed at what our attendees stuff into their designs. We decided to create not only 22 holiday designs but 22 quilt blocks to go with them. Each design uses assorted confetti to match the color of the design elements, the end result is truly beautiful. The quilt blocks contain a unique cross stitch pattern as the background and we even include confetti border blocks. You will love creating these designs! The best part about this collection is that you can combine it with other Anita Goodesign collections! This collection is part of the “Mix and Match” quilt line. All of the design collections that are in the “Mix and Match” line come with 5”, 6”, 7” and 8” blocks and are fully interchangeable. There are redwork collections, folded fabric collections, special editions, jelly roll collections plus many others.
