Sjalynn's birthday present
This is what Tristan and I made for Sjalynn for her birthday. I put the black fabric on fusible webbing and then mailed it to Tristan cut out the shapes on her Cricut. Then she sent them back to me to iron on to the white fabric. Then Joseph and I stapled the fabric to the canvas. Tristan and I saw it on an infomercial for the Cricut! Then I saw an article in a magazine about using large patterned fabric on artists' canvas for a decoration. I couldn't find any large print fabric that I thought Sjalynn would like in black and white, so I thought that it would be cool to use Tristan's Cricut to cut the shapes out. I could have used my CraftRobo, but it only cuts up to 8 inches wide and Tristan's Cricut cuts up to 12 inches and I wanted the pieces big.
