I love appliqué!!!
What a surprise! I really wasn't sure I could like it as much as patchwork but I do. Its completely different yet wonderfully creative. Even if you use someone else's design the colours, placement and fabrics are all your own making it just about impossible that there could be two exactly alike.
Its so versatile too, you can buy a pattern or draw your own- it doesn't matter how your picture starts. I even bought a children's colouring book at the weekend because it had a great line drawing of the African savavnnah complete with volcano in the background, another was if hot air balloons and yet another was of a mouse in a sailing boat in front of a lighthouse. The lady serving me at Waterstones laughed when I told her what I had bought it for and thought it was a clever idea do as is my style I'm already overflowing with ideas and long time plans.
Fun fun fun
Until next time
