Schoolhouse Appliqu Reverse Techniques and More

Patera has been perfecting the process of reverse appliqu} for 20 years. Her cut-as-you-go, no-nonsense method has carried over into her work with direct appliqu} so that there is little difference between the two. It is very easy to do this pleasurable method with an old traditional pattern, the Schoolhouse block. The technique of reverse appliqu} has been equated with the mola,Ó from the Kuna Indians of Panama. Molas combine reverse & direct appliqu} in varying degrees; mola makingÓ is not in this book, rather, it is devoted to the beginner, offering an easier choice of technique for reverse & direct appliqu} (R&DA). The book includes: R&DA; step-by-step instructions; large, clear color illus.; schoolhouse & tree patterns; & a complete alphabet.Patera, Charlotte is the author of 'Schoolhouse Appliqu Reverse Techniques and More' with ISBN 9780756764333 and ISBN 0756764335.
