Applique by Dorothy Tucker
This practical guide is illustrated with examples of applique from all over the world, showing the variety of possible interpretations which you can adapt for your own purposes. Different methods are described and instructions given on how to work them, with attention to design and construction. Folding, cutting and applying, multi-layered applique, applying by bonding, cut-outs and collage, machine applique and applique combined with embroidery are among the subjects covered, and advice on transferring a design and an exploration of three-dimensional applique are also included. Twelve projects are distributed through the book, with trace-off templates supplied on the worksheets at the back. These provide simple and entertaining starting points which will help build up your expertise and confidence. When you are ready to try out your own designs, the "extension ideas" will encourage you to build on the experience you have already gained and combine the different techniques.| SKU | Unavailable |
