Stacked & Stitched: Artistic Fabric Projects for Your Home

About this book

Youve never seen chenille used like this before! Artist Christine Morgan was playing around with layered fabric one day after a brief introduction to the chenille technique. Self-taught she developed a method that retains the pattern and design of the layers rather than obscure them in fluffiness. She calls the layered and slashed fabric yardage she makes pelts. Once she has a home decor design in mind she creates pelts that bring out the look she wants including big bold appliques and off-center piecing. Now you can use chenille the same way creating truly unique pieces of fabric art for your home. Instructions for four projects are included for a pillow placemats a table runner and a mini wallhanging. The inspiration gallery shows potholders wall art and even an ottoman covered in Christines artistic pelts.
