    My but if I don't I'm afraid the little pieces will fall off.son's birthday is in July and I have been trying to make portraits of his two little girls. After a couple of tries on each one I finally have some pretty good likenesses of them. It is harder out of fabric than it is paint. The shading is done with colored pencils. I dye my own fabric so it is an easy way to get the flesh tones. Now to put the borders on and quilt them. That is the hard part for me
