I have been upcycling denim jeans to make purses for Sew Powerful Purse Project, but when using hubby's denim jeans, the back pockets are too large for the purse size I need to make. I wanted to be able to use those back pockets in something, so voila, here is my take on Flower week by making appliqué flowers in a denim pocket. I added crystal bling to the quilt and the pocket and some butterfly buttons too.
I used Crafter's Edge Crossover II Cutting Machine and cut out flowers using the Large Flower die cut set, the Increment Circles die cut set, the Flower die cut set and making some flowers from the circles I cut out using my flower tutorial that you can find here. I love how quick and easy it is to use the die cuts from Crafter's Edge. Makes it go so much faster!

HeatnBond Lite Iron-On Adhesive is great for appliqué! |
The Pressing Paper from Therm-o-web protects your work and is perfect for pressing appliqué. The Mini Oliso Iron is great for pressing small sections and it comes with it's own matching iron rest. So pop on over to check out my tutorial on the Therm-o-web blog. |
