Meet Bernina foot #34 - the clear open-toe foot. It is used for different types of applique work because you can see through it and control precisely where the needle stitches. Precision is extremely important for keeping a stitch pattern perfectly aligned on the edge of the fabric. This is the foot I got this month.
The quilt block I made for month #2:
This is one of four blocks that will make up the center of the quilt and will share an inner border. I still need to add the border, but didn't want to pick those fabrics until I completed all four blocks. I decided to use "cool" colors on this block and the next, since I used "warm" colors on the first block. I'm not sure I like the background quilting stitch I selected for this, but hey, I am trying to get outside of my "comfort zone" and try new things.
I love it, LoriAnne!!! Absolutely beautiful!!!
