I downloaded a picture and followed the basic instructions I had followed in the tutorials to go over the lines.  Learning how to start each part of the design, different density of the fill.  The thing I haven&#8217;t really got the hang of is the amount of overlap required due to the pull on the fabric.  This had more impact on my Manchester Bee, which had more areas to fill in.  Trying to make sure there were no gaps was quite hard, but I think I got there in the end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"http:\/\/kariscraft.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20180510_103631-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"712\" data-link=\"http:\/\/kariscraft.space\/20180510_103631\/\" class=\"wp-image-712\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kariscraft.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20180510_103631-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/kariscraft.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20180510_103631-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/kariscraft.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20180510_103631-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>First attempt<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"http:\/\/kariscraft.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20180612_123641-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"716\" data-link=\"http:\/\/kariscraft.space\/20180612_123641\/\" class=\"wp-image-716\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kariscraft.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20180612_123641-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/kariscraft.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20180612_123641-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/kariscraft.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20180612_123641-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>adding a bit of detail<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"http:\/\/kariscraft.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20180612_123629-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"715\" data-link=\"http:\/\/kariscraft.space\/20180612_123629\/\" class=\"wp-image-715\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kariscraft.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20180612_123629-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/kariscraft.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20180612_123629-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/kariscraft.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20180612_123629-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>progress<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"http:\/\/kariscraft.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20180612_141718-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"719\" data-link=\"http:\/\/kariscraft.space\/20180612_141718\/\" class=\"wp-image-719\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kariscraft.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20180612_141718-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/kariscraft.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20180612_141718-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/kariscraft.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20180612_141718-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>final item<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/kariscraft.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20180522_130001-e1561658673465-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"713\" data-link=\"http:\/\/kariscraft.space\/20180522_130001\/\" class=\"wp-image-713\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kariscraft.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20180522_130001-e1561658673465-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/kariscraft.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20180522_130001-e1561658673465-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption>First version with plain fill and bit of a gap at the bottom<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/kariscraft.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20180522_220300-e1561658667867-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"714\" data-link=\"http:\/\/kariscraft.space\/20180522_220300\/\" class=\"wp-image-714\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kariscraft.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20180522_220300-e1561658667867-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/kariscraft.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/20180522_220300-e1561658667867-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption>Changed the fill pattern to look a bit honeycomb, and closed the gap a bit<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Disappointingly, I haven&#8217;t used this on any item yet..
