Repinned, fused and partially sewn ...



With the dragon safely pinned to the wall in the previous step, I swapped needles to prep him for fusing ...



and turned my design wall into an ironing slope so that I could easily slide the little guy onto my ironing board.



Ironing with my ancient non-steam Rowenta went really well ...



leaving me time to start sewing the fused bits to the top. Hopefully, this labour of love will be used often. I wanted it to be sturdy but assumed that fusing the parts first would help me in assembling the dragon. What a learning experience but I don't think I'd change a thing - other than dial down the fretting.
