PROJECT 126
POCKET ANIMALS | ANITA'S EXPRESS | 185
APRIL 2020
Choosing the correct fabrics will make the designs pop!
Most of the colors of your Pocket Animal zippered bags
will be blocked in using appliqué fabrics. Since these
bags are fun and funky, choose fabric colors that are
vibrant and colorful. We decided to make the animals
bright solid fabrics, while the backgrounds and backs
of the bags were vivid batiks. Simple cotton fabrics are
perfect for this project, since you can easily turn the
bag right side out after you construct it in the hoop.
After selecting your fabrics, you can then match your
threads and pull in any colors that you might need. You
can make your bags realistic animal colors, or you can
make them any color of the rainbow like we did!
