Some time ago, I had bought some Sugar Skull fabric.
My intention was to make something for my daughter-in-law.
She collects Sugar Skull items.
The other day, I made mug rugs using a Dresden ruler that I ordered.
The pieces were only 2 inches long for the mug rug.
I wanted to try making them larger.
Instead of mug rugs, I made a table topper.
The Hot Press ruler I had ordered helped to make the points exact.
I cut out some larger sugar skulls and appliqued them on the center circle.
I didn’t know if I wanted to use 4 or 5 skulls.
I used a 21″ x 21″ square of black felt for the backing.
Finished Front with 4 Skulls in the center
Finished Backing
Very cool! I’m sure she’ll love it.
Cute fabric!
Thanks
Love Sugar Skulls — great fabric choices
That worked out well!
Thanks. I sort of got hooked on Dresden. I saw a tutorial for making a pillow with a front and back Dresden. If I can get this binding out of the way, I will try my hand at a Dresden pillow.
Great. I love the black to really make the bright colours pop
