I have been wanting to test some new designs for Poggle's Living World dome cover. I previously made him a short, fat
tree dome cover and I was able to duplicate that for a customer, but I wanted to try something new. It seemed like mushrooms would be a suitable next woodland item :)
Here is the finished toadstool dome cover!
I used orange fleece for the top, white fleece for the stem and dots, and green fleece for the grassy base.
The underside of the mushroom top is pale yellow flannel. I have sewn the underside out of triangle wedges so that there are joint lines that mimic the lines under a mushroom top.
If I had more white fleece, I might have made the whole base white, but I didn't have enough so I just made it green on the base to look like grass. The underside is green too.
Sometimes limitations are good. I rather like the green base. I tried to sew grass strands, but it didn't work out. I'll have to think about how I might manage that.
What do you think of my new dome cover design? I wonder if Poggles will like it?
Want one of your own? Have one
custom-made just for you here.
Have a happy day!
