Perfect for Fussy Cut Motifs!

While any fabric, solid or print, can be used for 3D applique, this works especially well for fussy cut motifs. In the examples, butterflies were cut from fabric and used to adorn several projects.

You can easily do the same with whatever motifs you wish to showcase. The 3D pieces are simple to make and can be used just about anywhere.

Sarah and Nikki of Sariella have created an excellent tutorial. Once they’ve outlined the process, they go on to show several creative projects using 3D butterflies.

To create your own 3D shapes you’ll need Pellon 809 Decor-Bond and Fray Block by June Tailor (other no-fray products don’t give the same effect).

You’re sure to find some great ideas here for whatever 3D motifs you care to create. In fact, we bet this will have you looking at fabric in a whole new way!

PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest has featured many patterns from vendors participating in the Craftsy Marketplace, most of which have been deleted by Craftsy. It's going to take awhile for us to hunt down new sources for those patterns. In the meantime there are many links to patterns on our site that no longer work. We apologize if this article contains one or more of those links and appreciate your patience while we straighten things out. Thank you!




PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest does not sell or otherwise provide patterns directly. We showcase patterns and projects from various vendors, bloggers and other sources. Please make a note of where you access a pattern (the link in the yellow box toward the end of each Quilting Digest article). That way you can contact Support for that source if you have downloading problems or other issues. Thank you!
