Molas!: Patterns, Techniques, Projects for Colourful Applique by Kate Mathews
The traditional applique panels know as "molas" are indigenous to the San Blas islands of Panama where they are made by the Kuna Indians. But with their brilliant colours and delightful folk-art designs, molas have long been prized by collectors, artists and admirers around the globe. More than 25 projects demonstrate how to apply traditional mola techniques and designs to contemporary uses. Complete instructions and illustrations show how to make waistcoats, aprons, pillows, wall hangings, mola note cards, book covers and more.
