hi guys I am making this blanket as a gift (and ofcourse now i want it xD but it remains a gift) and ive had fun uploading WIP to instagram but now it has come far enough i am happy to share here too :) I still have to add embroidery, the padding and the backing to this so stay tuned.

its very glittery so unfortunatly the reflections are a bit bad.

here it is without the reflection and my dad very chuffed with himself for thinking of hanging it up to show you guys.

Don't worry I'm a face painter at Disneyland, I know what a house full of glitter is like. It sticks to everything!!! My clothes, room, car, boyfriend... Haha
 
so ive had some questions on how I got this far :) i didn't make it easy for myself and just kinda winged it so there is probably better ways to do this but this is what I did:

-got a ginormous bedsheet and cut it in half so I could have the front and back.

-drew anna and hans on A4, its not my best but I knew I couldnt have too much detail.

-taped 4 pieces of big paper together, then placed my A4 on it, drew my circle how I wanted and drew the background.

-I traced the picture onto my fabric with a few fabric pens (they kept running out!) here is where it lost a lot of detail, I sulked for a bit then decided to continue. you can see i made a few mistakes but the paint fixed it.

- then painted it how you saw in the first post.

taped lots of bits of paper to my first template the size of my fabric, this thing is so huge there isnt really anywhere in my house big enough to lay it out so It was on our living room floor as my sister and I tried to tape it together while our dogs thought we bought a new toy! xD then drew on my style background onto the template.

then i traced it onto the fabric again, drew snowflakes everywhere (i used a frozen book as reference for them) then painted glitter everywhere :D

aww thank you! i considered it but i don't think anyone would be interested and what with the cost of the products and 2 weeks straigh to make its probably not cost effective :)
