Non-Slip Appliques, Mats

Non-Slip Appliques, Mats Article

Applique or applique (from French, "applied") is an ancient needlework technique in which pieces of fabric, embroidery, or other materials are sewn onto a foundation fabric to create designs. It is particularly suitable for work which is to be seen from a distance, such as in banner-making.

In reverse applique, layers of fabric are stitched together and the upper layers are cutway so that lower layers form the design. Mola or San Blas is a reverse applique technique.

A famous example of applique is the Hastings Embroidery whose designs are appliqued onto the backing fabric using a variety of embroidery stitches.

Applique is used extensively in quilting. "Dresden Plate" and "Sunbonnet Sue" are two examples of traditional American quilt blocks that are constructed with both patchwork and applique. Baltimore album quilts, Broderie perse, Hawaiian quilts, Amish quilts and the ralli quilts of India and Pakistan also use applique.
