Some time ago, Ginette brought the idea to start a new project, learning the Mola technique. She had already done some nice pieces like this cute cat. One part of the group followed her with enthusiasm. I did not, being too busy with my baby quilts.
This technique comes from the Kuna women in Panama, who were traditionally using it for there costumes.
It is a reverse applique method consisting in using from two to seven layers of fabrics of different colors
sewn together.
Stunning and joyful result!
Obviously this technique needs a hughe concentration!!
Dina is giving the last touch to her sampler.
Finished! She wrapped herself pleasantly in her quilt!
Happy quilting to you all!

The Mola technique is new to me. Seven layers! Very interesting. I think your friends projects turned out beautifully!
