arrow_circle_down Storytime Quilt Set
In case you are new to the world of large applique designs, let me fill you in. A large applique design is one which needs 2 or more hoopings, with the joining completed as you stitch, In the hoop. The beauty of my large applique designs is you can quickly create a 3D Animal Design much larger than your hoop, and then add them to quilt blocks, reading pillows or pretty much any item as you like.
. I loved the idea of the animals snuggling down in their quilt ready to be read a story. With my sample, I went with the idea of a Quilt within a quilt and used an UFO (unfinished project) – the simple Star and Moon Quilting blocks, I then added a ‘pillow’ at the top, then an added border. You could use any combination or background you like.

This is a Quilt design that you could really play around with - I'd like to make this Quilt again (when I get time) and have a crochet 'blanky' as the Quilt part - I think it would add a lovely texture. I decided on having just the Piggy reading a book, but you could play around with having all the animals sitting on the bed reading books. |

Or just use the animals with the book design for very cute cushions |
