Ribbon-legged African animal embroidery design set

Our ribbon-legged or tailed, appliquéd animals are only partly embroidered. The legs or the tail can float freely. Children can happily explore these movable parts.

Read our blog post of the ribbon-legged, appliquéd animals, which are only partly embroidered.

How to use these embroidery designs

We can only use these embroidery designs by using covering appliqué fabric on the animals' bodies. This will cover the ribbons’ end fasteners.

In the first step, the embroidery design marks the location of the tail. Where the machine stops, fasten the tail in the correct direction. The length of the ribbons used for the tail is on average 6-8 cm ( 2.36" - 3.14"). You can use cord, thick yarn, twine or ribbon for the tail. When the tail has been placed, put the appliqué fabric on top of the animal's body. After finishing the narrow zig-zag stitch, cut around the fabric. Be careful not to accidentally cut off your animal's tail! Then, in the final block, the embroidery design is going to finish the satin stitch outline of the animal.

With this process, the edges of the appliqué material are completely sealed. The fabric will never unravel. You can wash it in a washing machine as many times as you like.
