This
collection was designed with flexibility in mind. White washable
felt is the ideal fabric to stitch these wings on. It will allow
you to reduce your stitches and stitching time significantly if
you skip the white stitching. The blank
message wing (bottom row on left) makes customizing easy.
INSTRUCTIONS:
If you are using white fabric, skip over the first color (white).
If the second color is ALSO white, be sure to stitch it, as it will
appear int he flag part of some designs. Stitch all the colors,
except for the last one (navy blue). Slide a second piece of white
washable felt under the hoop, without re-hooping. Stitch the last
color (navy blue). The
second layer of fabric hides all the unsightly bobbin threads. Un-hoop
and trim felt close to the navy blue stitching line. Finger press
a crease down the center. Hot glue wings onto small stuffed animals
or dolls. For extra strength, take a couple of tacking stitches
to secure the wings.
The
your new "angels" are ideal for flea markets, bazaars, and boutique
sales. You'll
certainly want to make your own legion of angels!
For variety,
apply a spray-on glitter or irridescent flakes once the wings are
stitched and trimmed. Also, try varying the backing fabric to complement
the colors used in the stitched side of the wings. Add a ribbon
loop so your new "angel" can fly from the rearview mirror of your
car or hang from your bedpost.
Use the patriotic designed wings on little teddybears to show your
American
Pride and remind others that our
troups will have busy guardian angels!
Stitch a set of floral
wings on the back of a stuffed Easter Bunny to hop right

that? Do I hear bells? An angel must have just gotten its wings!
