Wool Appliqué Folk Art: Traditional Projects Inspired by 19th-Century American Life

Rebekah L. Smith

Wool Appliqué

Where Spargo's wool work leans toward embellished fiber art, Smith's stays close to primitive, Americana-style folk art — simpler wool shapes, muted period-appropriate colors, and projects modeled on 19th-century domestic pieces. Both books use wool felt and blanket-stitch appliqué, but the finished aesthetics are genuinely different. A good pairing for a wool appliqué quilter deciding which visual direction to take the technique.

Sue Spargo Fresh Cut: Wool Appliqué, Layering & Embroidery Quilt Book

Sue Spargo

Spargo works in wool felt layered with heavy embroidery and beading rather than the fusible cotton appliqué most quilting books cover — different tools (embroidery needles, wool felt, perle cotton) and a much more embellished, textural finished look. Her style leans toward fiber art and mixed-media rather than traditional block piecing. Suited to appliqué quilters wanting to move into wool and heavy embroidery specifically.
