Techniques

Patchwork technique that pieces together leftover fabric scraps of varying size and print into a usable quilt top, a common way to use up sewing offcuts.

Embellishment technique for attaching flat or cupped sequins to fabric by hand or machine, either singly with a backstitch or in overlapping rows for continuous shine.

Hand embroidery stitch worked in overlapping slanted stitches along a line, producing a narrow twisted rope effect used for outlines, stems, and lettering.
