Printed pattern for Block 11 Life in the Town Victorian Mice Chamber maids raw edge applique tutorial free motion embroidery

Printed pattern for raw edge applique using free motion embroidery. This is the tenth of a series patterns to make the ‘Life in the Town’ quilt. This is the eleventh of a series patterns to make the ‘Life in the Town’ quilt. The block shows Maggie and Sarah, the chambermaids, tidying the bedrooms. Poor Maggie having to take out the chamber pots!
This block measures 8 by 12” finished size. I am expecting the full quilt to be approximately 42 by 60” and full of life in the town, both above and below stairs, and contain around 15 blocks. I’m currently playing with the idea of putting the outside of the house in the border so there was a little roof and chimney in the upper border etc. . 😊 And I would dearly like to do a partner quilt with ‘Life in the Country’ with them living in a hollowed out tree.

This is the 10th block in what I hope will be a long series of 15 similar sized blocks, all based on life in a Victorian house, both above and below stairs. At the minute I'm estimating the quilt will be around 42" by 60" but I have a fair way to go before I can confirm that. I'm hoping to use additional borders to build up a house complete with roof and chimney :) This block measures 8 by 12" finished (8.5 by 12.5" unfinished.)



This pattern contains the templates along with plenty of colour photographs through each step.
