It’s been a long time since I’ve shared a handmade patchwork tutorial with you. Today I’m going to show you how to make an autumn patchwork painting. If you are interested, follow the diagram below and try DIY together!
Patchwork drawings can be saved and printed later:
How to make a patchwork painting:
1. Use printing paper to trace the pattern on the thick cardboard and cut it out for later use.
2. Use the cut-out paper pattern to trace the pattern on the front of the non-woven fabric, leaving a 3-5mm seam allowance on the edge and cut it out.
Tip: For light-colored background cloth, you can directly place the cloth on the drawing to trace the shape, and then cut the drawing; if it is dark-colored cloth, it is more convenient to place the cut drawing on the cloth to draw the outline.
3. The background cloth used here is white. When tracing, the force should be light so that the lines can be seen. Align the cut pieces of fabric and sew them in place..
4. After pasting the outline of the tree trunk with a piece of cloth, use embroidery to show the strong branches;
5. When sewing leaves, you need to pay attention to the density of the front and back of the leaves. The colors far away are darker, and the colors closer are brighter and darker. The leaves can be arranged as you like.
6. Girls’ hair is made with embroidery.
7. The pattern of the skirt is sewn, the small parts are embroidered, and the black beads are used as necklace pendants;
8. Sew with a flat stitch to create the effect of the autumn wind blowing, sew a falling leaf and embroider the veins;
9. The table cloth is produced.
10. Pay attention to widening the side strips by 4cm;
11. Press the surface fabric and collodion in two layers, first press the picture part. Prepare a piece of base fabric, sew around the surface with the top fabric, leave a back opening and turn it from the back opening to the front, sew the back opening to complete the basic shape of the picture frame. Make pressure lines on the edge strips to make the edge strips compliant. And embroider the outline at the junction of the edges as a decoration;
12. Add hanging rings, and a fabric-style collage is completed.
