what if i use that fussy fit appliqué method for a traditional patchwork design?
no reason, just for the hell of it.
hand drawn with micron pen on recycled cotton striped mens shirting fabric (doubled).
outlined in back stitch using black and white cotton jaspe 20/2 weaving yarn
turned appliqué scraps in linen and silk fit inside outlines.
pieces cut extra large so excess is stuffed under giving the illusion of trapunto padding.
scanned, better photo later.
as promised, photo that shows the effect...
