One Fish Two Fish...You can sew it too Fish!

While the dog days of summer are rapidly coming to an end, 

it's not to late to enjoy the pool or beach.

Having your own special towel is an added bonus.

This fun little goldfish complete with scales, is easy to do

 with with "Crafters Edge" dies.

These dies work with the Crossover II Fabric and Paper Cutting System, 

as well as with Accuquilt GO cutter, with a conversion plate set, 

Start by fusing a piece of  HeatNBond Fusible Interfacing on the back 

of your main body piece. 

(This gives it the stability it needs to stitch the scales on) 

Fuse HeatNBond Lite Fusible Web to the back of the fabrics

 for the fins, scales and eye.

Cut out all pieces.

Note:  fish is not fused to the background. 

Start adding the scales from the back to the front, fusing then stitching

 each row as you go.

The back will look something like this when you done.

Using Thermoweb Spray N Bond

Spray the back on the fish, fins and tail. Arrange on towel, 

tucking fins and tail under where needed

Stitch down, being careful not to catch the loops of the towel.

til next time...

Keep your head about water in these crazy times!

LOL!!

and...Keep on Stitchin'
