Description
Paper piecing is a technique that involves sewing small pieces of fabric onto a paper template. The template acts as a guide and makes it easy to create intricate designs, such as those found in these animal paper piecing patterns.
Materials
Here's what you'll need:
- Fabric scraps
- Paper templates (which you can print from the free resources linked below)
- Scissors or rotary cutter
- Sewing machine or needle and thread
Pattern Sizes
The size of your finished animal will depend on the size of the template you use and the scale at which you print it. Most of these templates are designed to fit onto a 8.5x11 inch piece of paper, but you can adjust the scaling to make them bigger or smaller.
How to
Here's how to create your own cute animal paper piecing:
- Print out the template you want to use.
- Cut out the individual pieces of the template.
- Using the paper pieces as a guide, cut your fabric into the appropriate shapes.
- Starting with the bottom layer, use a sewing machine or needle and thread to stitch the fabric pieces onto the paper, one at a time. Be sure to stitch along the lines marked on the paper, and don't worry if the fabric extends beyond the edges of the paper.
- Once you've sewn all the pieces onto the paper, trim the edges of the fabric along the paper lines.
- Repeat the process with each layer until your animal is complete.
- Carefully remove the paper from the back of your animal, and you're done!
With these cute animal paper piecing patterns, the possibilities are endless. From farm animals to jungle creatures, there's something for everyone. So grab some fabric scraps and get crafting!
