appliqué

A

Appliqué refers to a type of sewing in which quilt tops are created by applying small shapes of fabric onto a large solid section of fabric, usually to form particular designs or shapes such as flowers or vines. There are several methods of appliqué including fused appliqué, raw-edge appliqué and the traditional needle-turn appliqué.

Angela Grace

Angela Grace’s first quilt was started when she was 18, given away unfinished when she was 22, gotten back when she was 34 and finished when she was 39. Now that Angela makes quilts in significantly less time, she’s on a mission to make quilting simple so that new quilters can be creative. When she is not hanging out on the internet you can find her quilting, gardening, reading, or, most frequently, daydreaming.
