It was Mothers’ day in America yesterday, am I right? Well in any case back on this side of the pond, I ran a giveaway on my facebook page for the United Kingdom’s Mums (It’s the sorta thing I do, because I’m a generous soul!) The winner of the giveaway was a lovely lady with a little boy with a thing for Spiderman; look at this picture he drew (clever little sausage!) The prize was for me to reproduce the child’s drawing on fabric to produce a wonderful framed keepsake picture to treasure. The Little Beanie quite likes Spider-Man too; she wanted to keep it to decorate her room with. Actually she puts forward a good case to keep…

Today I thought I would give you some insight into one of the handmade processes that went into making it: how to applique using bondaweb.
