Wall Hanging Finished Size: 52 cm x 85 cm One of our hand or machine applique designs, this cockatoos quilt wall hanging is stitched by machine, or hand using blanket stitch.Your full size cockatoos applique pattern includes full instructions for the applique using fusible web technique with blanket stitch directions, and with optional embroidery embellishments to finish your quilted applique wall hanging. These cockatoos look very cheeky sitting in that branch. The little black eyes, can be either black sequins or small buttons, if you sew then on with white cotton, or in the case of the sequin with a white or clear seed bead in the centre, you will find that it gives them a little twinkle in their eye to add character. The gum flowers are an area where you can add as little or as much embellishment as you wish. use variegated, or different shades of stranded embroidery thread to place long stitches out from the centre. Add small beads, or french knots in a cluster in the centre, and again around the outside of the rough circle you have made. COCKATOOS PATTERN IS $19.95 AUD We pride ourselves on providing colourful original designs, that are fun to do. This fusible applique pattern used fusible webbing sometimes called Vliesofix, or bonding web to fuse the separate pieces of fabric to the background. It is then machine appliqued or sewn by hand using embroidery stitches like blanket stitch or button hole stitch. Using basic patchwork for the background and borders, the wall hanging is then appliqued and quilted. We like to add optional embroidery using bead embellishments on our quilt patterns to add an extra creative touch. Our patterns are ideal for textile art backgrounds, as the optional embroidery, can be as much or as little as you like. Finally the finished wall hanging is quilted, often using a random stippled quilting. For beginners we have a how to applique section in our website.
