Bodacious Applique' a la Carte

Bold and beautiful, these appliqué designs leap right off the quilts! Here's a unique collection of appliqué patterns, ideas, and techniques. A variety of fusibles enable separate construction of the appliqué units, which are then stitched to your quilt. A banquet of 10 complete small projects allow you to pick and choose from a variety of subjects and moods. Flowers, both realistic and imaginary, and creatures, such as parrots and geckoes along with a whimsical cat, can be used for projects ranging from elegant to definitely bodacious. Simple, effective embellishing is the key to making easy designs look more complex. Presented with a variety of appliqué methods, you'll soon be on your way to creating exciting and original projects.
