First you need a photo shot by a camera no cellphone. I let a lady make the internetwork. . It is in format A3 and you need 3 fotocopies mirror and one not mirror. The internetwork is made in black, white and two grey. . You put together batting with the white fabric with gluepaper. Cut 2 cm bigger than the fotocopy. with ared frixion pen you write for the light grey fabric, around all white on your photocopy, for the grey fabric you write around all light colours on your copy. and for the black fabric you write around all dark on your copy. Then you glow the fabric on the copies with steam a seam. And then to the cuting. With a sharp scissors you cut both fotocopy and fabric. And when you have parts of the colour you are cuting inside other colours you save them. When you have done all cuting for one fabic. You should start with the light grey, then the dark grey and last the black. You put the light grey on the white fabric, taking away the paper. Do not iron yet. You use the cut out as a template so you know where to put your first layer of fabric and then you put the pieces on its place. When all the layers is in their place your can watch on the "·real photocopy" and when you are saticfied you iron it in place. No steam and you should use a bakingpaper to protect. Very small spots you can paint wit colour. The small spots in their eyes etc. Hope you understad how it is made. It is quite easy
