Hey There!!! Today I Felt Inspired, And It's Been A While Since My Last Good Quality Post, So We're Gonna

Hey there!!! Today I felt inspired, and it's been a while since my last good quality post, so we're gonna make a fabric pin of a death moth! You can also follow the steps here to make your own patterns of another bug. If you make this, I'd *really, really* love to see it. Let's start!

Hey There!!! Today I Felt Inspired, And It's Been A While Since My Last Good Quality Post, So We're Gonna

You'll need: Dark fabric, a small piece of cardboard, a paper with the patterns (you can print or trace them, glue, a little of wire and bleach or white paint

Hey There!!! Today I Felt Inspired, And It's Been A While Since My Last Good Quality Post, So We're Gonna

1- First, you have to cut the patterns and pass them onto the fabric.

2- Cut the pieces off.

3- Now, in order for the fabric to not fall apart, we're gonna add a little of glue around the edges. If you have synthetic fabric you can melt the edges with a lighter, but be extremely careful with that.

4- Cut another B piece, of cardboard now, and glue it to the back of A

5- Glue four small wires to the wings of A and C making sure they overlap with the body a little. This is in order to make them stronger. You wont need them if you use fabric that doesn't bend easily.

6- Take another wire, fold it slightly in half and paint it black. This is to make the antennas. You can also use cardboard, or pipe cleaner to make them fuzzy.

7- Glue the pieces together in this order from back to front: A, B, C and D (unexpected, I know). Don't forget the antennas between C and D.

8- This is the fun part; paint the moth. Go wild. I went for the classic but you can make geometric shapes, eyes, spirals... I used bleach because I like the look, but be careful with that. You can use white paint too.

9- Glue a pin to the back. If you prefer it to be a necklace or anything else, glue whatever you want.

I hope you liked it!!!
