does anyone know of or has anyone made a pattern for a football helmet? I want to make my husband a quilt in the theme of his favorite NFL team, It will be for a fall carepackage while he is deployed since he will miss football season.
If none knows of one, is it possibler that I could just take a picture and trace i onto freezer paper or fusible web? has anyone done something like that before? |
Taking a photograph and enlarging it sounds your best bet, do you have a black and white setting on your camera if so, it would be easier to define the areas for tracing - good luck, I guess you have already tried googling football helmets??? :D
|
I just did a quick search and there are a few entries for football appliqued banners which you could look at for inspiration there is one with the helmet ball and court in the background which would make a lovely quilt!!
Good luck!! |
Are you looking for a pieced helmet or applique only?
|
How about looking up clip art football helmet? You could enlarge it to whatever size you wanted.
|
what a relief! when i saw the thread title, i was afraid you'd want us to help you applique on the helmet. that could be hard on a needle, boy-howdy. :lol:
|
Have you seen the NFL and college football fabric here? You may want to check out the team's website for ideas.

I did a search and found the one with the field and helmets, I might resort to buying it just for the helmet and football applliques!
|
What team are you loooking for?
|
new england patriots. Im not above trying to piece the logo or anything, I just want to make a good looking helmet:)

Thank you so much :) I think I can get it right in photoshop. I can also actually make it into a coloring book page which is just the edges and cut it out!! DUH! I want to make a 24inch block, so I think I want the helmet to be 12 inches finished.
