Bunny Hop

I’ll post the photo of Bunny Hop with a disclaimer. I will probably never be comfortable with applique. I worked very hard at getting those tiny Easter basket handles just right. I ironed them within an inch of their lives, and still they've come out puckered. If you've never done needle-turn applique, take it from me; this was HARD. Those quilt handles are only 1/4" thick. They're made of cotton fabric that didn't want to be cut and sewn into little half circles. I can only hope that when the block is set into a quilt top and quilted, I can look at those pink handles without seeing red. If I can't, the quilt will be a gift to someone I don't visit very often.
