Dog Project

For my dog project i decided mine would be some type of camouflage dog. 

 as we were meeting to have a picnic i felt that making him out of grass would something i could easily show my dogs ability to blend into the grassy background.
using a simple dog pattern i then printed photographs that i had taken myself and printed these photos onto heat transferable paper transferring it onto my material allowing me to print the grassy print on it. i didn't want to add to much facial detail incase it ruined the dogs ability to blend into the grass so i only added his nose in the closest colour to the grass and felt that was enough.

the only difficulty i had with my dog was the transferred prints would peels off whenever stitched in a certain place repeatedly which became difficult when attaching the ears and head to the rest of the the body. but apart from that i felt that my project cam out very successfully and i enjoyed the whole process of making it.
