A while back I saw a Lego display and previews for another
that had pictures made out of Legos.
These were of famous paintings and far more advanced than I could do,
but this gave me the idea to do something similar but way more simple. This turned out to be flowers. First I had to check out my Legos to see what
colors and shapes of each I had so I could know what I could make. Then had to
find pictures of flowers or simple cross stitch patterns. Next I made customized cross stitch patterns
on Stitch fiddle. Then I had to get Lego
plates of different sizes depending on the size and shape of the picture, so mostly
16x16 plates. I had to try to hook the plates
together as well as I could. And then I put
the Legos down according to my patterns.
On my last two the tulips and the sunflower I put a layer of thinner Lego
plates under where I wanted the flowers to go to raise them up above the
background.
Columbine (Colorado state flower)
Hibiscus
Luther rose
Tulips
Sunflower
This was a fun adventure! I started out not knowing exactly what I was doing, but I kept learning from each picture. Now I know a lot more about how to make these Lego pictures and can’t wait to make bigger and better pictures.
