If I had to give a definition of artist it would be “anyone that answers the call to create”. Whether we take paint brush to canvas, write a poem, sculpt an attractive crust on an apple pie we are baking, sing a delightful ditty in the shower or move perennials around our garden to create a perfect color combination, we are allowing the artist in us to flourish! This month we wish to sing the praises of the visual artist in all of us. Whether you use crayons or paint, thread or yarn, that desire to make something out of nothing fills us with a sense of well-being and self-satisfaction… and makes us an artist!

Here is our collection of our May Appliques. No matter how you chose to express yourself creatively, I hope it brings you great satisfaction!   

As always, these appliques were designed to fit on a 6″ x 6″ block, but they can be enlarged or reduced to meet your needs. We have already shared 2 of these appliques, but we will soon be sharing the rest, and adding coloring pages for each. We hope you find a special place to use these special FREE appliques.
