Today was a good day! Temperatures in the low 60s along with wind, qualified the day as a no guilt craft room day! Sunshiny days above 70 degrees may occasionally be spent crafting…. but there is often a bit of guilt for being inside on such a day.
I love appliques, so I thought I’d play around with making some digital appliques. Here is my first attempt. Â The pigs are clipped from a scan of a vintage linen tea towel. I used dashed strokes for the stitching. This is fun… give it a try!
Happy drawing.

I wrote this post a few days ago but didn’t get around to publishing it. I’m having fun playing around more with the idea. I’ll post pictures later and will try to get a tutorial together to highlight some of the Inkscape features I used.
Impressive. I love how you are creative and keep coming up with new ideas.
The scan of a real fabric gives it such a realistic look. I like the little touch added to the stitching on the blue section that looks like real sewing when reverse stitching is done. Very creative indeed.
LOL…. had to chuckle that you noticed I put in the reverse stitching. Thanks for the kind words.
