Ladybug Snail Butterfly Appliqué Patterns

Hi there, I am back with the second group of applique patterns for the Secret Garden Quilt, this time they are the Ladybug, Snail, and Butterfly Appliqué Patterns. Similar to the Flower applique, these little cuties were made by fusible raw edge applique and quilted with the Trapunto method.

Although these three appliqué patterns are part of the Secret Garden Appliqué Quilt project, you don’t have to limit yourself to using them only for big quilt projects. Each of them can be used individually for smaller sewing projects like fabric coasters, embellishment appliqué on bags, clothes, pouches, and more.

Also, in this tutorial, we demo it with the Trapunto quilting method; however, you can use them in your usual applique way.

Here are the related appliqué patterns to this Ladybug, Snail, and Butterfly designs:
