Thanks to the popularity of the reel I shared on instagram showing this technique, my latest video tutorial is now ready to purchase! Dive into the intricate and beautiful world of reverse applique with this comprehensive PDF download and video tutorial. Reverse applique is a fascinating technique where fabric layers are cut away to reveal a design, creating stunning depth and texture.

This technique is historically significant and used in various cultural textiles, such as the vibrant Kuba cloth from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the intricate molas of Panama, and the exquisite Hmong textiles. Now, you can learn how to incorporate this method into your own projects with my laid-back and easy-to-follow video instruction. I’ll guide you through each step, advising you on suitable fabric and thread choices to ensure your success.

You will make a sample with 4 sections featuring a different design in each. You will learn:

simple geometric motifs
how to create a freestyle design
single layer reverse applique
multiple layer reverse applique
Ideas for creative applications

The applications for reverse applique are limitless! Enhance clothing, accessories, patchwork, and even create mini quilts. While this is a slightly more advanced technique, it’s incredibly rewarding. If you’re new to applique, I recommend familiarising yourself with simple needle turn applique first. Don’t worry if you haven’t, as you can receive my free needle-turn applique guide to get started by signing up to my newsletter.
