 A Tale of Two Masks 2020 Part 2 

Part 2 adds to the Colour of Blog.

White Background

 

I have my Black Hemmed Circle. I took some White Felt and Cut out a Circle slightly smaller than the first. I then Sewed it on top. 

Adding Brown

 

The next part was harder. After scouring the internet for goodness how many hours I found the Image that I wanted. I now had to build up that Image in Felt.

I cut out the Body and Tail shapes in a suitable Brown Colour. I slightly overlapped them and then Sewed in Place.

Winging It

 

After the Tail and Body were in place I was the able to add the Wing.

Come on you Reds

 

Normally I would have just Coloured in a Red Circle if asked to draw a picture. However in studying the Image I found that it actually had considerable more Red required than you would think.

Yellow Peril

 

Time to add a Beak. This did not go well. The material I had was far too friable and in the end I had to give up.

Beak and Branch

 

I decided that it would be far easier just to Embroider the Beak onto the Circle. I then added another piece of Brown Felt as a Branch. 

Orange Spot

This part was fiddly trying to get the Shape Cut and placed correctly.

Eyeing up the Leg

Here we have the finished item. I have Embroidered the leg and for a bit of fun decided to add a Googly Eye to my Red Breasted Robin.
