BREAKING THE DROUGHT -  $8.50

Breaking the Drought is especially good for quilters who are new to embellishing. You can use the embellishing features on your sewing machine to create a textured quilt that can be used as a piece of art or as a lap quilt. Quarter or half yard pieces of fabric are embellished before being cut into the blocks for the quilt. Smaller fabric pieces are easier to handle and if you do make a mistake, you have not ruined your whole quilt. The gentle curves allow for embellishing with the feed dogs UP!
