Brown bears and Sea Otters.....oh my!
2 Attachment(s)
Even though I was a slow convert to the method, I love doing these pieces in raw applique. The bear is 15 inches square and the otter is 15x20. It does take about a day to cut all the pieces. I draw on freezer paper and then cut for hours in the sun. Elmer's glue tacks them together until I anchor them on the backgrounds. I believe both these pieces appeared as kits a while back a well.
Enjoy. MaryKatherine |
Wow - those are great. Your thread painting is wonderful

OH I happen to love, love, love OTTERS. They are both wonderful!!
|
Truly awesome is right!

Really turned out wonderful! Never thought about using Elmer's glue instead of fusible. Do you put it on the back of the cut out pieces with a paintbrush or dab it? Inquiring minds want to know.

Fabulous. Your fabric selections are perfect and the thread painting done on them is cetain to keep those raw edges from fraying.

They're both great but I love the expression on the otter.

Both very well done ... I love the Otter!!!
I've done raw edge applique where you have several overlapping layers as well. My glue stick became my best friend while making that quilt. |
Awesome job on both of them! I especially love the otter.
