How to Reverse Applique a Tote Bagcomments (31) November 1st, 2013
Now let's work on an area of the design that I want to be brown. The brown fabric is the bottom-most layer in the stack of fabrics, so in order to reveal that, I'll need to cut through both the striped layer and the pale green layer. You can cut these together or one at a time - whichever way is easier for you.
Just pinch the two layers up as we did before, and then cut. In this case, the shape I'm appliqueing is thin line, so there's no need to cut out the center - all I need to do is make a slit down the center of the shape and clip around the edges.
Then, turn under both the upper layers together and stitch them in place.
