How to Machine Applique: Tips for Choosing Colours by Textile Artist Alaura Poole

Welcome to Pattern Poole Tv, Today, my daughter Alaura is going to make one of her applique designs and talk about her tips and tricks for choosing colours for appliques and quilts. Alaura is a talented textile artist, behind-the-scenes manager, and designer at Pattern Poole! She is the mastermind behind all our applique designs and has a very interesting take on choosing colours. As she made her design, I decided to film her so she could chat naturally about her methods.
