Fantasy
So much to choose from.. But I didn't want to do anything too involved.. my aim is try and keep these projects bite sized.
After a couple days thinking I settled on doing a Cornish Pixie from Harry Potter.. The one I sketched as my design was a mixture of images on the internet.. some Cornish Pixies, some fairies, and with a slightly frog like element to his hands and feet :)
I wasn't confident to free hand copy it on the machine.. so I traced him onto tracing paper and pinned in place |
I love this blue silk! Not sure what sort it is (it's a bugger to felt mind) it's soooo shiny and luxurious! |
Forgot the camera for a while now :) but I snipped around the edges to reveal a little naked, wingless, blue pixie. Pinned a piece of iridescent organza over then free handed his wings and snipped round the edges of them too.

With a few FME metallic stars to finish :) I think he looks naughty enough! |

He's magical! Love your design. (The silk could be dupion.)
Thank you :) I'm pretty rubbish at knowing which silk is which :) so thanks for that too, it's good to know! xx
