This is the second of my Fresh Picked Posies BOM by Piece 'O Cake designs. I have had this BOM for a while and did not make any of the blocks. I sewed up the first block a while ago. Since I have so many applique projects in progress, I decided I need to get busy working on them.
When I started to applique this block, I could tell that my skills were lagging. I remember my applique teacher saying that she had good applique days and bad applique days. She also said that if she did not applique for a while, she had to find her rhythm again. I certainly had lost my rhythm for sure. By the time I was over half way through this block, I felt that I had made good progress toward my goal of finding my rhythm again.
Next I want to pull out my Whimsical Garden blocks and sew up another one of those blocks. I have several Piece 'O Cake projects in the works. Some almost finished and some just barely half way done. Time, time, I need more time! LOL!
Happy Quilting

Wow, your block looks great! Yeah, sometimes we get a little rusty with some of our skills when we don't do it for awhile. I hope you're getting your applique "groove" back now! Your applique always looks so wonderful!
I think applique is like machine quilting. You need a warm-up to get the rhythm.
