Description:

I've hosted this swap in another group and loved creating and exchanging the Teesha-Moore-style patches. Who wants to give it a try?!

We will:

  • Send one patch to each of two partners. Follow the links to the Teesha Moore tutorials posted at the bottom of the swap description.

  • Choose fabrics that would be considered "brights" (which could also be bright colors on a black, white, or colored background).

  • Make our patches between the approximate sizes of 6 to 9 square inches using a square or rectangular shape. Examples would be 3"x2"=6 sq. inches, 6x1, 5x1.5, 4x2...whatever speaks best to your fabric pattern and design whim.

  • Stuff the patches as shown in the video to make it a lightly stuffed "pillowy" patch.

  • Use some thread stitching besides the stitching that is required around the edges. This may be hand stitched or machine stitching.

  • Include another type of embellishment such as beads, sequins, or buttons.

  • You do not have to be an experienced sew-er to participate. This is a very inexact, artsy process!

  • Please send and rate in a timely manner.

  • Have fun creating!

If this is successful, perhaps we can make additional swaps to create enough patches to make an item. We can also branch out into other colors and themes.
