Lynette shares her technique for giving fabric a vintage look by speckling, seen below in the Redwork pillows.
Redwork Pillows, 8 1/2" x 10" |
Lynette offers a tutorial on her favorite applique techniques, turned-edge and Apliquick. The patterns are reversed so fusible applique can also be used.
I enjoy needle-turn applique myself but was interested to learn about Apliquick which uses semi-water-soluble paper and special rods to hold and roll turned edges of the applique pieces. Every stage of the process is shown in photographs and instructions.
