Applique with the Statler

Here's a flashback! 
One of the first things I experimented with on my Statler Stitcher was using it to applique. This was in 2007, Precision Stitch days. The tools we had to work with were sizing a pattern and angle of rotation, but we could still do some amazing work. Linda Taylor invited me to tape a program with her and you can see the video here:

Below are some of the samples I had with me that day and some newer pieces I have made with the same techniques.

Fish, shells, Christmas trees, and pumpkin patterns are all available in the free Statler pattern folder in Creative Studio.

Of course, I'm using Creative Studio software now, which allows me much more freedom in design and quilting, but the techniques are the same. 
Patterns and instructions for the applique wall quilts below are available on my website:

    Anita has a long background rooted in traditional handwork and quiltmaking, which she still enjoys.

    Often, these days, you'll find her digitizing patterns for the Statler Stitcher and other computerized longarm quilting machines. 
     
    Her summer days are spent in the garden and she loves finding new ways to prepare good veggie-based meals.


    She's always in search of a way to balance all of those activities and find time to share with others who are passionate about the same things.

    This page is a sneak peek into what's happening in her world right now.
