Quilting and binding
Оглавление18 Refer to Making a Quilt Sandwich and Quilting in the technique section. Quilt the panels, bodice, hat and wings. The top half of the wing shape is the wing behind, so quilt this part first. With a pencil draw a curved line where the bias strip is to be placed. When quilting the wings I quilted a row, stopped, pulled thread through to the front for sewing in later, and then moved the needle to start the next row. When the quilting is finished, sew on the arm.
19 Cut 1¼in (3.2cm) wide strips on the bias to a length of about 90in (230cm). Sew a bias strip the same colour as the binding where the two wings meet to give the impression of two wings. Line up the raw edges of the leg with the raw edges of the skirt so that the legs look upside down (see Fig 1). Pin the legs in place. When sewing on the binding sew in the legs at the same time. Sew all the way around to finish the doll.
