It is very early on Saturday morning and I can't sleep because I am too excited. Today I will be sewing my all new improved foxy purses.
The ones posted earlier this week in post How to make foxy wool and felt coin purse were prototypes and I have learned from my mistakes. New 100% wool felt from The Wool Felt Company has arrived and I am set to go!
I have also designed a new sleeping fox pattern that I want to try out.
Instead of using the heat bond applique paper, I will use freezer paper which comes off felt easily. For a great tutorial check out Simple Machine Applique by Sew Mama Sew and this one from Live Creatively Now which shows some clever tips.
I will not be using any backing fabric as I am sewing on thick wool and think it should be ok. Hopefully I can show you some good results later.
Here are some beautiful works from others for inspiration
