Media Reviews
Mar 14 Jennifer Dick didn't used to be able to get on with applique and just when she had concluded the technique wasn't for her she discovered the magic of freezer paper. Similarly, I was delighted to discover this title using the innovative 'invisible zigzag machine applique method'. This modern take on applique and the resulting fresh designs go to make up a spectacularly useful bookshelf addition. So salient are the processes within this title that there are four chapters (Invisible Zigzag Applique, Alternatives to Invisible Zigzag Applique, Advanced Preparation Techniques, and Finishing the Applique Quilt) dedicated to them, and half of the page count dedicated to perfecting the preparation, production and finishing of the quilt. The patterns are a lovely mix of folk art, Scandinavian simplicity and stark modern designs, using careful applique placement, negative space and lots of quilting for textural effect. Out of the eleven projects, I'd be keen to make all of them, although Trees, Mod and Fall stand out for me. It's also worth mentioning that, unlike many modern titles, the fold-out pattern sheet at the back reproduces the applique pattern pieces at full size. Popular Patchwork
