A decoration or trimming of one material fixed onto another (8)

I believe the answer is:

applique

(Other definitions for applique that I've seen before include "Ornamental work" , "Sewing of fabric pieces onto larger piece" , "Decoration" , "Style of needlework" , "Stitching on of pieces of other fabric" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
