Embellished Applique For Artful Accessories
by Converse Patricia (9781589232969)

"Embellished Applique for Artful Accessories" is a new take on traditional applique. Applique - layering of a fabric cutout on top of larger fabric and sewing it in place - is most often associated with quilting, but this book takes applique beyond expectation and provides step-by-step, illustrated instruction for using applique, in combination with other materials, to create beautiful embellished fashion accessories. Each project featured is both creative and contemporary, often inspired by nature and organic forms with stylized flowers, spirals, and abstract imagery. Projects are feminine but not fussy, elegant but not stuffy, energetic and calming. Appliques are an integral part of each accessory project and all projects feature complete instructions for making the accessory and the applique. Finished projects include bags, mini-bags, belts, journals and other personal fashion items.
