This looks like a great book and I certainly need to improve my applique skills!
I REALLY love appliquie!))) I need it!
What a fab looking book. I want to make the coffee cup sleeve..... Well that would be to start! I have just found your site and it is also fab!!
Oh my goodness.. what an amazing looking book! I don't think that anything will be safe from applique now!
Wow! What an amazing book. Maybe this would really push me to do something with all the fabric I've been saving for a rainyday!!!
My daughter always tells people she is not cute, she is "sweet and smart." I want to applique that on a tee shirt for her. I would add that she's also sassy...
neat - I have never really appliquéd before, but I love trying new things. Thanks for the giveaway!~
I love the coffe cozy!
I just started quilting again and i'd love to do some appliqué on some baby quilts!
kploquilts.blogspot.com
I've never tried it, but this book makes it look so wonderful!
Great book! I really need to get better at applique. I'd like to do some throw pillows for my living room, and some onesies for my new babe.
i love trying applique, but it always seems to go slightly wrong somewhere along the way, so this book seems like a dream!!
I agree with trying to avoid hand sewing as much as possible. I can always use more tips for machine applique.
What do I want to applique next? I think I'm going to make my Dad a bathrobe for Christmas. Maybe I should applique a lawnmower or set of golf clubs on it.
Ooh, I've been meaning to get into applique. Winning would be fantastic!
I love the carefully selected patterned fabrics with lots of colour just splashed around a plain white tablecloth or quilt.
I'd love this book to help me as I start sewing more and more for my girls.
I would love to applique some onesies for my soon-to-arrive daughter. Flowers, birds, anything cute. I definitely could use some applique pointers!
That looks like a great book and I would love to do applique on quilts because it adds a lovely personal touch.
I've been working up the courage to applique on some of my daughters clothes. This would be a tremendous help!
There is a pillow I saw on pinterest with appliqued flowers that I would love to make...I just don't know how. This book would be great!
I love this giveaway!
I just shared on FB!
Yay! I was just thinking of appliqueing some birds onto a pillow for my friend!
This is so awesome! I would love this!
This couldn't have better timing!!! I'm ABOUT to start a bumper/quilt project with applique... except I've never done it before and so am totally winging it! It's going to be a tree branch on the bumper, and a whole tree on the quilt. Save me from screwing up my baby's bedding set!! ;-)
Me please

i have been DYING to learn applique. i'm just not smart enough to figure it out on my own.. and what i've been wanting to do is exactly what you said - a tie on a onesie!! for my nephew's birthday. and i've been wanting to do some cute applique onesie's for my baby girl :]
BHG does such a good job putting these books together, if only they had more crafty things in their magazines...
Looks like a lovely book. I don't think you can have too many books on the subject of applique.
Would love this book. Adding it to my wish list right now! I attempted my first applique project a few weeks ago for my daughters birthday. Could use the extra help next time.
I'm self taught so I definitely need to start reading up on some things that I've just winged in the past and do them the "right" way.
How awesome is that! I have been dying to applique my little ones' blankets I make them. I make one every few months and that would be awesome to make them more unique and my 3 year old would think I was the coolest Mom! Haha. :)
Oh fun! I really want to appliqué some pillows-we're getting our first house and I think I'm going to need LOTS of pillows to decorate the seating areas in the living room and family room and the beds in the bedrooms. We're going to have so much more space to decorate!!
I would love this as I am currently trying to learn on two birthday Teniers for my sons.
Thank you for doing this giveaway.

I love to applique t shirts for my daughter and make matching skirts or add a coordinating ruffle to jeans.

Oh I'm dying to win this one. I've been wanting to try applique for ages, but haven't been brave enough to try. This'd kick start me into action. As for what I'd do, I saw a gorgeous appique'd skirt recently, and I'd love to try and replicate it!

With the baby boom around these parts, I've been appliqueing onesies, burp cloths and bibs. I would love some new ideas. That book looks amazing!
Your suggestions are hilarious- especially the teepee pillow. Anyway, I'd like to applique letters on a blanket (preferably spelling a baby's name!)
Ooooh!! I would love this book! I have always wanted to try applique, but I've always been too scared. This would give me the push I need!
This book looks amazing! I've tried applique a few times and still haven't gotten it quite right.....this book looks like it could really help!

Some birds on a blanket. Wouldn't it be adorable? Thanks for the giveaway!
Those projects are beautiful! I love the look of applique.

I just started getting into crafting, especially sewing. I am a newbie, but I think this would be a great book for me to try out!! I would love to learn how to apply great little designs (like flowers, owls, cars, ties) to boring onesies and give them away as baby gifts.
What a lovely book! I haven't really explored machine applique and this looks like a great way to learn how.
Oh Boy. do I need this book. I am very intimidated by applique, but started doing it anyway; learning from blogs and UTube. Would love to have this book.
Thanks for the chance to win.
I did some of my first major appliqué for your "Use Your Words" contest. Need to remember to use stabilizer! I usually do reverse appliqué for its simplicity of execution instead. But I'd love to get some actual instruction on the right way of doing it. (I have "put a bird on it" before, but it was an embroidered one.)
Love this book
Ohh...I have never learned to do this..this would be great!
Would love to win this, I have been wanting to make some baby tie onesies for a friend that is having a boy soon!

I make baby hats and hair bows, but would love to turn my LOVE of everything felt into something else. This would be so much fun!
I learned to quilt from my grandma when I was a young teenager. My mom says that the skill skipped a generation :) I'd love to learn to applique from her, but I'd love to have a book since her expertise isn't available anymore. What a fantastic way to carry on family tradition of beautiful baby quilts! :)
While I realize it's a stretch, I'd like to applique a wall hanging of my son's favorite Busytown characters for his birthday next month!
What a great book! Lots of creative ideas I'd like to try!
A quilt I'm working on now. Need this NOW! :)

I have never appliqued, and this looks like a good place to start!
I would love a chance to win this. Looks amazing!!
ooooohhh aaaaahhhh! I LOVE applique, but have no clue what I'm doing. When we were in school we used to make fun of my mom because she stenciled EVERYTHING in a few years my daughter might make fun of me for applique. :-)
WOW! can i just say that looks like an amazing book?! applique totally intrigues me but also intimidates me -- i'd love to lear more and would love this book!

Speak of timing! I am going to be applique-ing bunting for my sister-in-law's baby shower! The problem is is that I get addicted to things once I do them.. Nothing in my house is going to be safe from it now!
I can't even tell you how excited I am to see this post. I was literally thinking yesterday that I need to find a local applique class to make an applique quilt!
Looks like a great book! Thanks for a chance to win!

Oooh! I've started appliqueing onesies not too long ago! ...would love to learn more techniques.
Growing up my best friend always had different appliqued pillow sheets. Their were 5 kids in the family, so I guess it made it easier to know which pillow was theirs. I love the way movie night looked at their house with all the pillows (and their pretty pictures) piled up in front of the tv. I would love to do that for my kids :)
Soooooo many possibilities...Where does one begin and how do you choose which project you want to do first....
Thank you so much. This is an awesome post!!!!

I love the idea of applique - such a good way to add interest to potentially dull/utilitarian projects. Just last week I was patching (another) pair of my little boy's trousers and managed to create an applique/button robot around it. (see here for photo - http://bygaenor.blogspot.com/2011/08/trouser-art.html)
This looks great. I don't do much with applique, but this would help me out! Thanks!

I love how applique makes all your projects look even more special and would love to improve what little bit I can do and learn some new techniques. Or, considering I'm self-taught, maybe I should rephrase that as learning some "proper" techniques. Thanks for the chance!
