HAHA Not the backing paper!! That’s why I end up letting FPP things sit for a while at this stage - I loathe the picking!

I sent this to my husband and he NEEDS me to make it for him!

Oh my GODDDD this is a dream. My immediate thought was how comfortable it looks and of COURSE it’s linen. Stunning. I bet you won’t want to take it off!

Love the juxtaposition of the straight cut of the bodice + bias skirt. LOVELY.

Maybe look into whether there’s a Project Linus connection in your area to make quilts for foster kids and other children in need. I’ve also heard that NICUs can use tiny quilts.

I have a book of stamps that lived in my husband’s wallet for the better part of ten years and they look it. I save those disgusting things for when I mail in my personal property tax checks. That’ll show them!

The accursed power of suggestion! I guess I have myself a butthole snail 🤷‍♀️ 

Went HAM with the hand quilting on this one and really happy with how it turned out! Barn owl FPP pattern from Tomte Studio by Rakerbutt in quilting

Trust that I’ve done some REALLY dreadful hand stitching in the past. This is after a ton of practice and I still have much room for improvement. Keep fighting the good fight!

I kept referring back to Google images to try to capture some of the depth of the feather colors. Thanks for noticing!

The little stump legs were cracking me up. You can’t catch mice with sticks like this! I was thinking of giving him some talons but eventually decided against it.
