I did not use a stabilizer, nor a hoop. Just be cognizant of the tension of your stitches.

Rhapsody confusion
I know I'm coming into the whole Rhapsody Reality thing WAY late.. I just found it a couple days ago. So now I've watched all the videos, and I just realized there hasn't been a new one in a LOOOONG time. Am I missing something? The last one I saw was when Ricky fused the basket pieces. I was looking forward to seeing how he actually pieced the background pieces.. Help? :?:

Hello Daisy!! If you look at episode 312 Ricky shows how he stitch the applique to the background using double blanket stitches. But, I think you will find that you can stitch the applique down any way YOU want. What kind of applique-method do you like??
If you are really into the idea of doing a Rhapsody I recomend Rickys Rhapsody book...and his DVD "Grand finale". Grand Finale is by the way my all time favourite when it comes to quilting. I learned a lot form it that can be implemented in any quilt :lol:

Thanks Brink, I will definitley get the book soon. I am so bummed about not being able to purchase series anymore.. I had 1 and 2, and I planned to get 3.. I like to watch them in a marathon sitting LOL.. So I waited too long and they changed it. so Now I can't see any of the series 3 ones.. bummer!

OOOppps thats to bad Daisy :shock: But; when you start sewing the appliques down (if using the blanketstitch) you will soon see that you need to do something to get those inner-and outer corners looking ok. When I was doing the applique it didnt take long for me to see I needed to make sure it looked nice. I used over 30 hours on the applique only, and when using that amount of time I did not want to make it look like rubbish when it was done :P
Try out on some small testpieces :wink: And by the way its your quilt so you decide on what and how to do it

There is a great little project in Ricky's book Rhapsody Quilts that is an excellent exercise for the blanket stitch and getting the inside and outside corners - its mostly practice and listening and watching your machine needle - I have the dvd also and learned tons more from watching that - I probably have viewd it 5-6 times <G>! I am finishing one now that I bought as a kit (before I found the book and dvd) and its a mess - the directions were poor and its warped but I will finish it anyway and learn from all the mistakes. Then will try another and it should be better!

I was just about to ask the exact same question re the blog!! I have just spent the past week or so watching all the way through to find it's all fallen off the cliff! NO FAIR RICKY!! :? It's over a year now.
Series Three has just come out and this site won't accept my card so I have little hope of buying anything else. I'm sure it will be accepted when my membership comes up for renewal again though. :roll:
Still, at least Alex posts regularly even if we do have to count nose hairs. :lol:Lyndhurst, Ohio USA - East Side Suburb of Cleveland, Ohio

Hi Daisy,
If you ever get to take a Ricky Tims workshop, you should. With the workshop, he covered all of his techniques (i.e., Chantal, Rhapsody, Convergence, Kaleidescope, etc.), and provided a binder full of information so you don't need to take many notes. Oh, and you get a concert!Lyndhurst, Ohio USA - East Side Suburb of Cleveland, Ohio
