3-D Applique?

If fusible appliqué feels a bit flat, it’s time to flip the script. Dimensional by Design, built on the Applismith™ method, uses quilt-first construction, playful layering, and specialty stitches to bring depth, texture, and movement to every block. Surprisingly easy — fabulously fun.
