Wall hanging finished size: 65 cm x 89 cm This full size applique pattern includes full instructions for the needleturn applique technique with optional embroidery embellishments. To highlight the different segments of the dragons back, small glass sead beads, sequins or french knots can be added. Using a golden thread fly stitch embroidery was added down the dragons wings in between the different segments. And using green stranded embroidery cotton, fly stitch was also added down the castle walls to suggest a climbing vine. This quilt pattern also contains easy quilting lines that were added in the background, to suggest clouds, and other castle turrets and buildings.

$19.95 AUD We pride ourselves on providing colourful original designs, that are fun to do. This needleturn applique pattern uses a hand sewing technique, the pieces are not fused to the background, they are sewn on by hand, using a small hemming stitch. (Although, you can of course make it up in your method of choice, the instructions supplied are for that of the needleturn technique). Using basic patchwork for the background and borders, the wall hanging is then appliqued. We like to add optional embroidery using bead embellishments on our quilt patterns to add an extra creative touch. Our patterns are ideal for textile art backgrounds, as the optional embroidery, can be as much or as little as you like. Finally the finished wall hanging is quilted, often using a random stippled quilting. For beginners we have a how to applique section in our website.
