Applique in Quilting and for Other Uses
Applique
We’ve discussed applique as one way to create a quilt, the art of stitching pieces of fabric onto a fabric background in various designs. Some quilters prefer this over piecing quilts. Others combine the two.
You also don’t have to limit applique to bed quilts and wall art. You can use applique on clothing and items for decorating your home. If you particularly enjoy this type of stitching, you might want to applique:
- Table cloths
- Pillow tops
- Baby blanket and pillow sets
- Cafe curtains
- Luncheon sets
- Shawls
- Scarves
- Napkins
- Baby’s sleeper
