Easy applique from print fabric
It’s easy to applique a bouquet,
especially when you start with a
floral printed fabric. You simply
cut out the flowers, arrange them
in a bouquet and stitch them to a
contrasting background.
For extra interest, you can make
a vase, basket or bow from a
contrasting fabric scrap. Machine
stitches create all the stems you’ll
need.
The appliqued bouquet is ideal
for a throw pillow. With matching
print fabric for a ruffle, the pillow
becomes even more beautiful.
