Tech Know Quilters - Introduction to Applique
The technique of appliqué goes back as far as sewing does when people began using other bits of cloth to cover up holes in clothing items. Appliqué derives from the word appliquer which means to cover or put on.
Applique is often viewed as the hardest elements to master in Electric Quilt. During this series, I will break down the tools into bite size pieces to make this very doable no matter your current skill level in EQ. Although we won’t cover any complex blocks during the class, the skills will allow you to break a more complex pattern into smaller elements and successful draft any applique block.
