Ms Lowery clearly explains reverse applique techniques

I was fortunate enough to learn banner making techniques directly from Ruth Ann Lowery. She was the first in the country to publish a book, A Banner Year, teaching the reverse applique technique. I then read The Banner Book, and she expands greatly on the beginning technique into more challenging and interesting projects for both indoors and outdoors. As difficult as the projects seem, she uses simple wording and clear helpful illustrations to explain these techniques even to the beginner sewer. I enjoyed the ideas that Ruth Ann gives and the sample scaled patterns included in the book. The colorful illustrations and allowances for your own creativity encourage you to dive right into your next project. I encourage you to buy the book and begin sewing today. These banners make the perfect gift or decoration for any celebration.
