Video Transcript
- Amy has created these fun panels using inspiration from vintage fabrics and notions.
- These panels can be used in so many projects - embellishing jeans, purses, pouches etc.
- The panels include a variety of sizes of prints with generous borders so they can be used as smaller patches to introduce vintage treasures to your more modern fashions.
- Many of the fabrics will coordinate as well if you want to use one for an outer panel, and one for a lining.
- Amy likes to quilt the panels against a fusible fleece (with the fusible side ready to add to a garment) and then fuse it to her garment so you can just attach it. This makes it easier to work with fabrics like denim.
- Amy likes to add embroidery and other stitches to the panels to make them look like vintage pieces. Even a simple running stitch adds lots of texture and dimension to a block.
