Every great piece starts with a single cut.
The first step in bringing my Dalí-inspired 3D portrait to life is hand-cutting the cardboard, layer by layer, using a razor blade. Each cut helps build the shape, depth, and character of the final piece.
No shortcuts, just patience, precision, and a whole lot of cardboard. This is where the transformation begins.
Follow along to see this piece come to life!

The most complicated pattern I have followed to date. This is the first bag I have sewn; I learned how to sew last summer and would consider myself an ambitious beginner still. The pattern is the Quilted Tote Bag Pattern by porchepatterns ☺️ (cannot take credit for the design).
