The Farmyard in Patchwork and Applique by Martin Helene
Combine the crafts of applique and patchwork to create a spectacular quilt featuring a delightful range of farmyard animals. The author's charming sketches of farm animals, birds and traditional farmyard features are translated into simple applique patches which can be hand- or machine sewn to background fabric. Swatches of fabrics give inspirational guidance to choosing materials and there are clear instructions on the order the patches are pieced together to create the overall design. Borders worked on plain fabric with simple corner motifs bring the whole design together and a touch of French country style is evoked through the French names and phrases. The naive style of the applique combined with a sophisticated use of colour ensures the finished quilt will be an heirloom to treasure.
Helene Martin lives in France.
