I have been wanting to make:
1. Fabric Flowers
2. Something Mod Podge
3. Wreath
4. Something for 4th of July.
Those are just a few things off the top of my head. When I went to HL I picked up 3 scraps of fabric, Red, White & Blue, Mod Podge, and I just got some canvas today. I cannot wait to put the mod podge to work since i have seen many ideas on pinterest of things that i want to make.
Tonight, since I usually stay up pretty late, i took it upon myself to pull out the fabrics and try to make my own fabric flowers. Since I bought the coordinating colors in fabric for the upcoming holiday, hopefully my DIY will be a 2 for 1.
Before I post pics let me just start by saying that when I do a project, the first batch is the "half-ass batch". The one that I-cant-wait-to-get-started-on-because-i-want-to-see-the-end-result-already batch. Then when i have the time and patience i do the "whole-ass batch".
So this is what i worked on tonight:
Here are the scraps that i bought |
I cut them into strips. red was widest because it was at the bottom. |
then here is the end as i layered them on top of eachother. |
The next ones i did, i cut the strips wider, then folded them in half length wise. Then i stitched the edge. This turned out to make a clean cut, neater flower.
This is where I stopped at because I realized it was 1230am. |
Where's the update?! I wanna seeeee!! :)
