Synopsis

What do you get when you combine creative appliqu techniques with leftover fabric scraps? A whole new style of crafting. More than 30 fun projects are provided, with easy-to-follow instructions, patterns and templates. Color photographs show the finished pieces, including a charming "old cat" rag doll, patchwork mini-quilt, beautiful Moroccan-style vest, and more., Learn scrapplique -- using fabric scraps as embellishments to applique on fun-to-make projects. If you've ever wondered, "What can I create with a half yard of an upholstery remnant?" or "What scraps can I cover this binder with to fashion an interesting photo album?", you're going to love these designs. In India, scarves and headcoverings are so lavishly embroidered that the background fabric is difficult to see. The pillow you'll stitch is inspired by these designs, and the focal point is a large, central star motif. With only three pattern pieces and no quilting at all, a richly textured fan quilt block is as timesaving as it is sophisticated. Black, cream, and olive tones are beautifully accented with buttons in a variety of sizes. Pillows are one of the best and easiest ways to bring new life to a decorating scheme. Sometimes, it's hard to find just the right one, so why not make this design out of muslin with torn fabric strips or yarn to give it distinction? Ready to try something that's a bit different? Use scrapplique on the hard surface of a tin bucket. The final effect is similar to decoupage -- classic Victorian charm that's so rarely seen nowadays. Further embellish your bucket with charms, beads, tassels, and heat-transferred photographs. Emulate the look of a Moroccan woven cape on a chic vest that will add style to any outfit. This vest features alternating rows of cream-colored fringe and metallic spangles. Or jazz up a jean jacket with a dramatic Chinese dragon across the back. You'll find this innovative new twist on a traditional craft both creative and fun. Book jacket.
