APPLIQUE OF BARMER
is a decorative textile made
by cutting out intricate
pattens on a fabric, gluing
it on a base fabric and
stitching with hem stitch.
It is often combined
with little embroidery.
The patterns are mostly
geometric and floral
inspired by nature and
surroundings.
Traditionally used as bed
covers, the technique is
now adapted to
contemporary products
including furnishings
and apparels.
