Jumbo Applique – SewStylish (Spring ’11)

One of the easiest and quickest ways to embellish any project is with applique. In the latest issue of SewStylish, you can check out my version of applique using oversized designs for a dramatic effect.

Go bold this season with large applique. Choose a bright motif to liven up a basic garment, or select a design that closely matches for a more subdued look. Either technique is a fabulous way to breathe new life into an old favorite or any thrift store find.
