Mizrach is almost finished

I sewed a tight zigzag or satin stitch around each appliqué piece. I don’t always do that. Lately I’ve been sewing a straight stitch on the edges. The latticework is stitched with one needle, by eye, without drawing it first. I don’t know why, but I hate drawing lines on fabric that need to be erased. I’m going to do some more quilting in the background, and it will be done.

I have a lot of freezer paper templates from previous work. I looked through them when I was ready to cut the inner windows. Here are a bunch of them. Of course none of them was the right size, so I had to cut a new one.
