a big idea: applique inspiration

I mentioned that I have been feeling inspired by applique lately.  Here's a little more inspiration courtesy of a search on Pinterest.

I love this peacock inspired pillow.  My grandmother had some peacock feathers in a vase in her home when I was little and I was always fascinated by them.

This deer head pillow is so dear (sorry).  I need to try a silhouette applique with printed fabric.

This bunting bag is so pretty and a great way to use up little scraps of fabric that you just can't let go of.

I think I see a golden retriever version of this bag in my future.

Give applique a try.  It's a great way to add a unique feature to your project.
