One question I get asked frequently is whether or not I trim away the background fabric from my applique. The answer is no generally, unless the background fabric is blue. It seems that blue backgrounds show through applique like a beacon light. So here is my fish and it’s backside...all carefully trimmed. Thought you would want to know.
Thank you for showing the trimmed background. Neat and tidy.

I just love this quilt! It's so happy. Can't wait to find out where the pattern will be, your shop or a magazine.

Thanks for sharing. Is this applique by hand? It is so neatly done.

What do you use to trim the back? I can never get mine so neat!

I was recommended this website by my cousin. I'm not sure whether this post is written by him as nobody else know such detailed about my difficulty. You are wonderful! Thanks!
