Oliver's Favourite Things Applique Quilt
"This aplpique quilt project features 24 motifs that come in SVG file formats that are free for download. The applique motifs are fun, cheerful and cute designs that will appeal to children or anyone young at heart. The blog post describes how the author used them to make an applique quilt full-size blanket out of the motifs, but they can certainly be used individually for smaller projects such as a pillow case, a place mat, wall hanging, baby quilt, etc."
