Hey, hows it going? Ive been keeping myself busy, crafting, weeding and getting ready for someones birthday.
I managed to whip up another owl for the giveaway that I had.
I know your probably over the owl thing, but I had a bit of a realization with this guy. Simple is sometimes better. I made this owl keeping in mind it will end up in the hand's of a toddler. So no buttons. I love my other owls too, but I love the simplicity of this one and the fact that its my own pattern and its come together in a way im happy with.
Hoot.
Don't know about the flower on the tail, it looks more like a.... well u know! Sorry lets move on, I started to put together my Melly and Me bag from the "Girls Day Out". Which I hope to finish today.
"Feather Friends" is coming together nicely, Im loving the colours too. Ive also started to put together my next block for Breast of Friends, which im actually looking forward to doing now that Leanne showed me her applique techniques.
And lastly..I think, This little miss is turning One tomorrow!
Don't mind the sauce face! My mum has kindly offered to cook dinner at her place tomorrow, so all I need to bring is the cake! It's easier for my Grandparents to be at my mums, Yes Matilda is lucky enough to have her Great Grandparents... my Nonna and Nonno are in the late 80's and are amazingly still quite well and living life, which is fantastic!
I cant wait to show you what I got Tilly made from the lovely and very talented Jenifer! She kindly made Tilly's gift and in record time too. I ordered it not expecting it to be finished before her birthday, but Jen had it done in a week! Thanks so much your a ledgend... Please do visit Jenifer's Blog, she makes the most amazing Dolls, Animals and Clips.
Your owl is gorgeous and I like the flower detail! The bag is coming together nicely, gotta love those colours. Have fun with the applique block, looking forward to that one done. Happy birthday to the little miss! Lucky her having so many grandparents, they really are special.
