Ice Cream Cone Kadoodle Pig

Today I am posting as Design Team member over at Cutting Edge Designs

I used a file from Kadoodle Bug Designs. It is the older file called Oink for Ice Cream. I thought that I would show you step by step how I created my paper piecing. I am very new to the Cameo but I love it and find it fairly easy to use.




First I welded the body a bit so that I did not have so many pieces. Looking at it here I can only tell they are pigs because they are pink.




Here is my little pig with just part of the pieces placed on the body. Still not looking too good at this point.


Now I have my pieces glued down but this is not really the look that I wanted. So I decided to do a little bit of detail work.



I am very please with the finished little pig. The small details really make the project. Thanks so much for taking the time to visit my blog.
