RUSTIC AND REAL L asthcruebr, ,r ruibn,se!
Each of the outhouse designs features realistic stitching that makes the rustic
charm of the structures come to life. Appliqués block in the main color of each
outhouse element, then shading is embroidered on top in a sketchy style to make
each design look as if it was drawn by hand instead of embroidered by machine! In
order to make each component look as realistic as possible, just use threads that
are a shade lighter and darker than the appliqué fabric for the detail stitching. The
result will be outhouses that look so realistic, you’ll be able to see the woodgrain
of the doors and walls! You can repeat this technique with any of the shaded
elements of each design, such as grass, rocks, or leaves.
