This fun tablerunner uses some unusual materials (the Yellow Pages?), an age old technique and some updated appliqué methods all to let you end up with a great looking quilt.

Ok ..grab your popcorn and beverage and let’s have some fun! We will give a pattern for an appliqué project and do it together. Come to chat during Let's Applique time and we will discuss our progress , solve problems , and answer any questions you may have to help you thru the process. From picking fabrics to choosing color … we’ll help you every step of the way.
We are making an 22" x 28" wall hanging called Cacti in Window.
MsDesigns will provide a website URL with instructions for a step of the project each week. After making all our steps we will put them together to make the wall hanging. It is OK to jump in late or miss a week. MsDesigns is always providing past steps for those that need to catch up.
What’s the catch for this free project you ask? All you have to do is go by the rules.
If you have any questions, please e-mail MsDesigns.
