Scottie Dogs and Calico Kittens - Part 2

In Part 1... We started looking at some differences between patchwork, english paper pieced or appliqué styles for quilting.  But we only made it through patchwork piecing, so let move on to english paper piecing and appliqué.  I guess some patchwork designs could be used in paper piecing.



Now my favorite look out of all these, well it's a toss up between english paper piece and appliqué.  



English paper piecing will usually have more sharp crisper lines, where appliqué will usually have more round smoother lines.  Both styles can show a lot of detail with color and presentation.

Here are a few english paper pieced designs.









There are some really talented people out there that express their artistic abilities through fabric piecing like these that I am sharing with you today.


These just warm my heart, scottie dogs have always been one of my favorites.  

Here are a few applique designs.







Quilts can be pieces of art, like these amazing quilts.
