Applique is a french term, meaning ‘applied’ or ‘a thing that has been applied’ which really describes the process handily. When we use applique, we custom-cut a piece of applique fabric, usually polyester twill, to fill a large area in an embroidered design.
Appliques (patches) can really add a lot to your artwork. Using your embroidery machine to do this actually makes it very simple. The hardest part is deciding what to applique on to your garment. One way to find unique items to applique on is to go to a “specialty fabric shop” and find fabrics that would lend themselves to being either a background or print fabrics that would lend themselves to being cut out and use the printed design to applique on our project. So, today i'm going to show you guys a video where i got it from youtube to make you guys understand more how the applique technique was using in embroidery.
