We pride ourselves on providing colourful original designs, that are fun to do. This fusible applique pattern used fusible webbing sometimes called Vliesofix, or bonding web to fuse the separate pieces of fabric to the background. It is then machine appliqued or sewn by hand using embroidery stitches like blanket stitch or button hole stitch. Using basic patchwork for the background and borders, the wall hanging is then appliqued and quilted. 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.
