Wool Applique Snow Bunny Challenge Project

Merry Christmas everyone! I haven’t posted in a while just too busy. I open my Studio once a month to local wool Applique lovers and offer a free Make ‘n Take. It’s my way of giving back and let’s me share my love of Sizzix! Our December project was a surprise. Stitchers received the Snow Bunny and plaid Background. I had two samples, but I love to see each individuals take on the project. One stitcher has shared her fabulous finish, don’t you love Angela’s Pillow? You will see a few photos of Stitching in progress, but I’d like you to see the paper die cut and the ‘waste’. Die cutters often are asked “doesn’t die cutting waste a lot of fabric?” To me waste is in the eye of the beholder! From the Snow Bunny ‘waste’ we scissor cut two additional paws, a snowdrift, and the potential of some trees if desired.

The technique for the Button Snowflakes (not die cut) can be found on a tutorial by Bonnie Sullivan published by Martingale.
