Now, that’s what I call fun! The owls are fussy cut from the What A Hoot line of fabric. <3 <3 <3 I’m probably give the little guy floating in the door a little branch when I quilt it. Flying with your wings down is just too exhausting! I used the alternative piece and instructions [...]

It would work great as is, which is to say as a wall hanging, or could be incorporated into another project. It finishes 9 1/2″ x 12 1/2″, but would [...]

The Floating Mariner, by Jennifer Ofenstein (hey, that’s me!) It’s always fun for a quilt designer to play with a traditional block.
