Lori Holt Cherry Fruit Salad Sew Simple Shapes – 15 Templates

A pair of cheerful cherries, a sunny lemon or a little pear can turn a plain kitchen project into something special. Lori Holt’s Fruit Salad shapes give you a reusable starting point for fruit-themed appliqué in your favourite cotton prints.

What’s in the set

• 15 reusable Sew Simple Shapes templates.
• Designed by Lori Holt of Bee in my Bonnet for Riley Blake Designs.
• Fruit Salad shapes for the Sweetie Pie Sew Along, with circles, fruit and leaf shapes.
• Sturdy plastic shapes for tracing and appliqué preparation, with markings to help with alignment.

A project to imagine

Try a cherry cushion, fruit appliqué tea towels or a small kitchen wall hanging. Repeating the shapes in different prints is a lovely way to give fabric scraps a purpose.

Getting started

Use your chosen appliqué method, or follow Lori’s sew-in interfacing technique and the matching project instructions. The templates help you trace repeated shapes; seam allowances, piecing and assembly follow the instructions for your project. Lori’s Sweetie Pie appliqué tutorial.

The Sweetie Pie quilt also uses a separate Pie Ruler. This listing is for the Fruit Salad templates only. Templates only; fabric, interfacing, thread, other tools and finished items are not included.
