Reverse Applique


Along the way in our recycling journey we will be learning some techniques to improve our up-cycling skills. For our first technique some of us have been exploring the process of reverse applique. 

Here we take two panels from different coloured t-shirts, create a design on the top panel then cut it out. The second panel is then layered underneath and hand sewn together with small visible stitches.

The final product is a lovely soft and flexible panel that can be turned into or incorporated into another garment.

Pretty cool huh :)
