Wool applique is hand sewing, not machine sewing. It requires felted wool fabric which now comes in beautiful colors, some of it hand dyed. The Quilt Tree has a nice selection. It is easy to learn the basic stitches and no previous experience is required. Choose your own pattern, be it a wall hanging, a pillow, a table runner, or a penny rug; the methods will all be the same. Small pieces are suggested for your first venture. After you get the hang of it, it’s fun to stitch while streaming!
