Block #7 of Let's Twist Again BOM quilt project

Love this block.

 

I discovered a way to "hand applique" using the sewing machine.

 

A stitch similar to a blind hem stitch is used, making the width very, very tiny, so the 'bite' into the appliqued piece is small, and using polyester monofilament thread, not nylon

BOM Block 6....Finished!!

Here it is at long last.

the original was way too large,

so I unpicked it and made it an 18.5" square.
