If you briefly say, the technique is to fold these layers among themselves and set them. It is a stitch gives the product a beautiful and elegant look, creating convex ornaments on the surface.
The top layer can be simply made of beautiful material with patterns, or sews from the flap, which determines the name - the patchwork quilt.

Cutting details
I will not speak clear things that you need to first pick up the material and carve out the main fabric of the future product and part of it.
We are interested in more appliqué.
Chose the drawing, moved it to the cardboard and cut the pattern.
Only for the classic Hawaiian quilt use symmetric patterns where special schemes are desirable, however, you can even take the schemes for cutting snowflakes.
And in principle, in our work, retreats from the rules are possible, then everything is suitable for you, any picture, flower, leaflets. It is easier to work with them: put the pattern on the fabric, circled on the contour with a pencil, marker, chalk, cut off, retreating from the contour of 5-7 mm inlet, do not forget about him! The billet for appliqué is ready.
With Hawaiian templates, a little more complicated, because you need to cut perfectly smooth symmetrical item. For this, the fabric is folded fourwise or two, eight times depending on the template, they rock it in order to avoid offsets, apply the template, drive and cut out.
If you are afraid that fabric offsets can not be avoided, draw the pattern on the expanded fabric, applying a template from the center to the left, then up to the right and the same below.
How to sew appliqué
Now literally perform the steps:- We apply the prepared application to the desired place on the front side of the fabric.
- We take the workpiece to the main canvase, laying the gaming seam along the edge, while you need to retreat from the contour by the amount of the allowance.
- Cut the allowance inside and strifting the applique by contour by secret stitches.
- In the corners, in places of roundings, we make transverse cuts on the allowance.
- If the drawing with internal slots, we pass around their contour with a stamping seam, retreating 5-7 mm, and then make a cut in the middle. Penate and chatting.
Stitch
After the entire applique on the front side of the product is sewn, we collect our sandwich from all three layers and proceed to the stitch.
- On the bottom lining part, we place the filler, cut out the same dimensions, on top of our beautiful detail with the applique.
- We sew all parts of a large stamp joint, watch the edges match.
- We carry out the stitch along the contour of the picture outside and in the slots. Make it and on the machine, and manually stitches 2-3 mm.
- Next, you need to draw lines around the contour of the pattern at a distance of 1.5 cm from each other.

Pretty thick edge of the product is more convenient to treat oblique baker. 8 cm wide strip, cut out of the spit from the fabric, fold in half, stroke the iron and take the edge of the product from the front side. Put further on the wrong and sewn.Schemes
