Is appliqué considered a legitimate form of quilting?
it is definitely one of the many different processes you can use to make a quilt. to be technical, the quilting is the quilting. to make a quilt there are so many different techniques and methods used now days its nearly impossible to name all of them. there are new techniques being discovered and developed everyday as well. we have piecing aka patchwork. paper piecing, english paper piecing, embroidery, beading, trapunto, cording used for both internal dimension and outside as embellishment. its not such a single form of art any longer. it incorporates so many different techniques and yes applique is one of those techniques. just my opinion of course. cheers, jeanne
if it wasn't then half the quilts at a quilt show would not quilts ;-)
so yes it is
It's definitely a legit form of patchwork. Whether you quilt it or not is up to you. Roberta in D

It's a very legitimate way to produce a quilt top. You would still need to add the other two layers of material (batting and backing) and stitch all three layers together before you could call it a quilt. Debra in VA See my quilts at
