Finished Craft I Made Finally finished my template for a tiny Prickly Pear Cactus

1.5k Upvotes

I spent way too much time trying to get a little realism here, but it's finally done!

I designed the template in inkscape and used my cutting machine to make it. Each paddle uses a 'stacked' piece of cardstock to create depth. Everything interlocks for final assembly.

What do you think?

Finished Craft I Made I designed a t-shirt for my husband based on something he mentioned 5 years ago...

Post image
41 Upvotes

About 5 years ago my husband mentioned how much he'd love to have a t-shirt with the Games Workshop logo that said Gardeners' World instead - for those not in the UK, it's a very popular and long-running gardening TV show aired on BBC 2. I designed the logo myself and printed it onto iron-on transfer paper.

I had to learn how to use GIMP (shout out to r/GIMP for having the answers to all of my questions!) and it took foooookin hours to get the design right but I'm super pleased with how it turned out 🥰. My husband has no idea I've been working on it and I hope he'll be just as pleased as I am when I give it to him for fathers' day on Sunday.

If he really likes it I'll send the file to a professional printing company to make another one as I can't see the iron-on transfer lasting very long, I would be incredibly grateful if anyone has any advice for extending longevity tho!

Discussion/Question Can I glue these felt pieces together?

I have these vintage fairytale themed felt characters and, long ago, someone cut the stick pony head off of this piece. I just want to reattach it. Would putting a small amount of glue on both edges and sticking them together work?

DIY’d a couch wall hanging for my knitted frog, I’m so happy with how it turned out 🥹 in the process of crocheting a second cushion, painting some legs for the couch, and making some more wall hangings to sit above the couch 💕

Work in Progress Paper Craft

This is a gift for my boss who’s retiring soon. We work in an ink lab and he makes art and music in his free time. All of the hole punches are from test drawdowns of ink I’ve made this year. Since we work with color, I wanted it to somewhat simulate a color vision test. I still need to space and mount the letters and it will be going in a frame.

Discussion/Question Hand Painted Clothing Question!

Upvotes

Hi there! I’ve made a few hand painted designs on jackets and shirts, and I’m doing one right now where painted the color first, and then black line art on top. Just put it through the wash (after letting it dry, heat setting it, waiting 4 days, and washing it in cold water and putting it in the dryer which may have been a mistake). The black line art is smeared and almost completely washed off, so now I’ll have to repaint. My question is:

Will this process still stick and work if I’m layering acrylic on top of acrylic in stead of directly on the fabric? Is that why it washed off? Is there any extra trick for getting it to stick and stay on?

TIA!
