Innovative Applique 3 of 3 W/S ~ Bias & Stained Glass

Stained Glass, very much like Celtic and Bias, appliqué , a traditional techneque that uses uniform folded bias strips of fabric. The bias cut allows the fabric to lay flat and curve easily. The intent of this appliqué technique is to create a ‘line’ in between sections of the design shapes as you would to create a curved line to add the lead in-between the glass when you create stained glass. Of course this can be done in various ways using all types of fabrics &/or materials such as; yarns, cords, strips of frayed fabric and plastics. How you apply your materials also gives you options for unique outcomes as you; melt, fray, colour, stuff, couch on…Your imagination will be challenged.
