I-8 Diane 

Diane – Fall Blend, A Fabulous mix of Kim Schaefer Fabrics

Diane says:  I did turned under, machine qpplique.  I cut full pieces of B & D out of freezer paper and ironed the freezer paper to the back of desired fabric.  I cut out 1/4” all around larger.  Turn and press the shape of the freezer paper.  Stitch to background A with your favorite stitch.  Press & Trim background A to 3-1/2”.  The 1-1/4”" corner squares seemed to be a bit too large, 1-1/8” would have fit better.

Julie: Elm Creek Quilts; The Giving Quilt This block was put together by PW Customer Mari H.

Mari H says: Make solid appliqués for piece B on page 120. Applique these and then trim the squares and apply the squares. Finally, appliqué piece D on top of piece B between the squares and assemble the block.
