Back Cover Information

Discover fast, fun rag wool appliqué and create the look of hand-hooked wool rugs with the ease of machine embroidery! Use your home sewing or embroidery machine to make 3-D appliqué from wool "cutlets," 1/4" felted fabric pieces stitched in place with invisible thread.

  • 20 rag wool appliqué designs to use in 28 different projects, including quilts, clothing, accessories, and home décor
  • Technique can be done on any sewing machine, or use a computerized embroidery machine with the bonus pattern CD-ROM (included)
  • Themes feature Americana, harvest celebrations, sports, sweet baby designs, and lots more
  • Cut our own wool strips from new or recycled wool, or shop from the sources offered in the book

"Everyone admires the old-fashioned look of hooked rugs, but time constraints of today's busy life limit us. Kathy has created a wonderful way to achieve the old-time look much quicker with any sewing machine, or almost effortlessly and faster still with a computerized embroidery machine."

Joyce Drexler, Executive Vice President and Creative Director for Sulky of America

"This is fun sewing! You will complete these rag wool projects quickly and easily following Kathy's complete step-by-step instructions. You simply follow the pattern Kathy gives you using the needle like a pencil. I love the way the "blob" of cutlets instantly becomes a wonderful Rag Wool design!"

Susan Hausmann, Senior Vice President of Education, Viking Sewing Machines, and host of America Sews
