Construction of 'Lil bitty scarecrows

Here are some photos of the construction process.
We gathered all of the supplies together and then cut all fabric pieces out at once. Then we took the 'divide and conquer" approach. Miss Rosie did the bodies, Tabby the pumpkin sewing and stuffing, Bree on the details, myself on clothing, faces, and hair. We all did fill in and help out for each other.




One hundred twenty body parts





Twelve shirts, six skirts, six pairs of jeans and six petticoats





Sew them together


Trim, turn and press. Yes, I really did iron all of these 'lil outfits.


Gathering pumpkins has a new meaning.




Trim, turn and iron all body parts.


stuff


Stuff and sew


Stuff some more


Adding steams and leaves


Now sew together.


Sew some more and get them dressed


Bree working on details.


As projects go, this one is fairly involved and time consuming. There are many details and most of it is all hand sewing. We all thought they were worth the work.



If you would like to make some for your self, send me an e-mail. And I will do my best to help up.
