An example of an applique embroidery
We offer applique embroidery services.
An Appliuqe is a decoration or trimming cut from one piece of fabric and stitched to another to add dimension and texture. Designs with applique can be more economical than embroidery alone if applique occupies a significant amount of the design.
Large designs that have large areas of a single colour can benifit from the applique technique to significanlty reduce stitch count. Rather than simply embroidering the whole design you take a piece of fabric in the requied colour which has been cut to size and embroider on top of this. The fabric will be stitched through the applique and also around the edges fixing it to the garment.
