Following the instructions on Carmen's blog I drew a star pattern on a pice of paper. I forgot to take a photo so this picture is actually compliments of her blog. I cut out each star point to use as a pattern.
I prepared fused fabric in a variety of small prints and patterns. I knew I was going to top stitch in the end so I was not concerned about using commercial fabrics which contain chemicals that sometimes keep them from holding the fusing well. I cut narrow strips from all the fabrics and fused them in sets of two.

Finally I fused the star points back together overlapping a little each time. I had to do a little trimming to keep things neat and tidy...but it went together pretty well.
Here's my little experimental fused 5 point star.
Now I just am going to keep building with some other colors....but that's for another day.
Ooh nice! Looks 3-D
ReplyDeleteYes....yes it does. Can't wait to add some colors.
