Owl

There are 16 animal patterns in the Quiltmaker magazines....from about 2011 through 2014.

But i started out with the Owl...he seemed the simplest. it's probably going to take me a while to do all of these...it will be an ongoing project. but they seemed too cute to not do them. 

He got pieced in about 3 evenings. i didn't put the borders on it....i am thinking of putting a few of them together to make larger quilts. but i am keeping the patterns till i am all done with them....in case i decide to make them all baby size. i like the way his ears are one up and one down. haha

And, now that i have the pictures, i can see where i have a piece wrong in his head...i'm going to fix that.  sigh!!  

I used a hand dyed piece of orange and the dark brown
