I've seen some really fun Superhero projects on pinterest but so far we aren't really into super heros and Matt has no special interest in any of them. So, when I wanted to make something for some of my young cousins and I found out they do like super heroes it seemed like a good time to pull one of those pins out. (specific one here)
I apologize for the absolutely awful pictures. But I forgot to photograph them at all so last minute pictures are all I have.
They are both paper pieced ... Paper piecing is a really cool way to do complicated images but not something I would really want to do a lot of... ever...
Hulk actually looks quite different then the original. I thought he needed an actual nose and eyes.
I put them onto drawstring bags... I wanted the gifts to be useful... possibly not the most appropriate place to put something that took so much time to create but hopefully it means they will get a lot of use out of them!
SUPER cool! (Tee hee!) I have some minimalist super heroes pinned somewhere and that's what these blocks remind me of. I never would have thought to turn them into paper pieced projects. I'm with you - it's neat but I don't like to do it a lot. The bags are really cool!
ReplyDeleteI love paper piecing! These are very cool. If the kids don't treasure them, the mom will:)
