I've been doing some holiday sewing. These Christmas stockings are made of burlap, serged together with a muslin cuff. I then add some burlap strands and attach driftwood beach buttons. The end look is a primitive, casual, beachy holiday look.

 



I then took tan burlap and created a sailboat applique using sage and chocolate burlap and a bit of nautral muslin.  Then I did the same thing with fish shapes. I'm using Heat n Bond to attach the appliques. I started with a medium, but went to the Ultra to ensure the appliques are truly 'no sew'.
