this is my NON-Applique cloud lol It was a dbc design sorry I don't remember who did it but it is lovely! Do you think it looks ok even though I did it like this & not like a traditional applique? There will be a few more filled designs added to this & I may add another cloud but wanted to check first

Cute

Very cute! Is it done on burlap? I have been playing with some designs on burlap with appliqued blackboard fabric as plant markers or whatever. You can write on it with liquid chalk.

It does look great like it is! I love fabric for applique but sometimes it' a lot more extra work and these turn out cute either way.

thanks Sharon very much. It is such a big project I thought this would lighten the load. ~hugs~

I think it is Cute either way, I have done several this way, cause I am not eager to do applique, and there are some really great designs out there!!! ( Arthritic fingers won't cut as close as needs to be, and they hurt!!!) Hahaha! Hugs, Judy

PS. Love it!!!

Thank you Judy, I like it too. ~hugs~

It looks great and yes, applique designs can be used without adding fabric - unless there are connection stitches hidden behind it. I used to do that now and again, but stopped doing that so the design could be used as a regular design too.

thanks Martine, I think this was a good choice. ~hugs~

I think that this looks as good as a conventional applique. But this will be a question,which applique you use and how the design matches with the fabric.
