Fun With Foxes

I just finished up another Fox and the Houndstooth quilt for a customer, and before I put away the scraps, I decided to play around with the leftovers and see if I could use up some onesies in my stash.

I fused some Heat and Bond lite on the reverse side of the fabric, cut narrowly around the design, and stitched in matching pale grey thread. Usually I use a machine blanket stitch, but I like the clean, simple lines of the straight stitch in this particular case!

When I appliqué onto onesies, I use a scrap of Warm and Natural batting on the inside to stabilize for stitching, and to give a little dimension. I trim the batting close to the stitches on the reverse side.

I may or may not have gone a little crazy...these were just too fun to make, and are now listed in my Etsy shop!
