embroider fox eyes
My DGD wanted a quilt made from a fox pattern I found. I made 9 blocks from fat quarters that she selected. One of the blocks will match the Sonic character, Tails, which is yellow and has 2 tails. The problem is embroidering the eyes on the Tails character to match the stuffed animal. I have settings for my Janome that will match the zigzag pattern on the outside of the eyes, but cannot make the oval shape that outlines the eyes with the zigzag. I am thinking of using my pressure foot I use for FMQ and dropping the feed dogs so that I can turn the fabric to make the oval. Any other suggestions? I do plan to use stabilizer under the eye area.
