Paper Piecing For Lost Coast Designs

Good afternoon and welcome to my second piece of the day! Lots of new challenges starting today, including Lost Coast Designs, who have chosen Paper Piecing. Here's what I've made.

 I started by stamping the Carmen's Veranda Bird Collage on a sheet of acetate. I painted the branches, then stamped the birds and leaves on some patterned paper, cut out, and stuck down over the acetate.

I stuck this onto some paper from a Christmas pack. I put the glue where the birds were, this way it didn't show on the acetate. When it was firmly stuck down I sewed it in place.

I matted and layered onto some more paper from the same pack, and it's all done. 

I really enjoyed making this, it's ages since I've done some paper piecing. I'll see you later in the month with my second piece.

I think this is the last of my pieces for today, so I hope you join in with our challenge, and thanks very much for looking xx
