Description: | |
For this one, make a big patch (8x10 inch or so) that has a complete story inside it. Use images from fabric to make a little comic strip or embroider text to tell the story. If you want, you can print on your fabric, but be sure that you don't print the entire thing out. Make sure that there are at least 3 panels on your patch and make it nice. Patches are sender's choice, but it's always nice to check your partner's profile to see what she'd like :) The basic gist of them is to take 2 pieces of fabric and a piece of batting (although I'm sure that felt or something similar would be fine too) and make a tiny quilt with the pieces. You don't have to be able to sew by machine, in fact i'd say 99% of the patches I've seen are hand-sewn. Also, it actually looks ok if you embroider it through both front and back of the pieces as they most likely will be used to put together another craft. The possibilities are really endless..... There's a board on my pinterest titled Teesha Moore Patches or you can go to craftster.org and search teesha moore for ideas and inspiration. If you have any questions, please ask me. I check my messages every day, so I'll answer as soon as I get them. The not so fun stuff.........no recent 1's at all, no 3's in the last 6 months, if you have some and feel you should be able to participate in the swap, contact me and I'm sure we can work something out :) That being said, only sign up if you intend to complete the swap and have fun! http://pinterest.com/bennysmumma/teesha-moore-patches/ |
