For all the coastal/ nautical fans out there. This is the simplest pattern EVER! And there are so many other things you can do with the applique itself. You can make it into a broach by putting a pin the back of it, you can attach a string to the top to make it a hanging decorating, you can put it on card stock to make it into a greeting card and of course you can attach it to a tote bag which is what I am doing with this project!
Level: Beginner
