Well it worked! I was a bit sceptical that it would produce a smooth circle but it did. So freezer paper on top is now my go to technique for appliqueing circles. What do you think?

design, freezer paper, labyrinth, quilt, reverse applique, sewjournal blog

Well I tried to start the first quilt in the Paths to the Divine Centre series that I am planning. It is proving much more difficult than I anticipated. Below is the design and as you can see it will require a total rethink. I was going to use reverse applique with the fabric for the black line on top as this is the only way I can get enough seam allowance but transferring the design has proved very, very difficult.

I tried using my glass desk and a light underneath but it wasn’t really visible enough to see through. I think my paper is too thick. I was going to transfer to to freezer paper but the paper isn’t wide enough to do it in one go. I might have to tape two pieces together transfer to the freezer paper and then try the desk again. I’ll let you know how it goes.
