Applique for the Drawing Challenged

True confessions!  I can't draw.  At all!  Never give me a blank sheet of paper and tell me to draw anything.

As a result, applique was one of the last disciplines for me to try in Electric Quilt.  However -- it really wasn't as hard as I thought it would be.  And I found that EQ gave me all these neat predefined shapes, so I didn't have to be a great drawer.

If you are drawing challenged, this video tutorial is for you.  You will be amazed at how easy it is to create a bunny to welcome spring.

Would you like to create this quilt to celebrate spring?

You can download the bunny applique block here.

As a reminder, the background and borders were cut as follows:
Center Background:  18-1/2" x 8-1/2"
Left and Right Borders:  1-1/2" x 8-1/2"
Top and Bottom Borders:  20-1/2" x 1-1/2"

​Applique the bunny on the quilt.  Add quilting.  I used some of the designs from the Quiltmaker downloads.  There were lots of options under flowers to complement the bunnies.

The fabrics from this quilt were from the May 2016 Fabric of the Month Free Download on the Do You EQ website.  The collection was Dear Stella Dessert Bloom.
