I’m annoyed because one of my corners is missing. It used to exist and now I can’t find it. I’m going to have to dig through my linen closet to find it. That makes it sound all organized doesn’t it? It really means I’m going to have to pull down all the sheets and towels and blankets that I have stuffed in there and hope it’s wrapped up in a stray blanket or something.

But for now I’m just irritated because I like that square with the bears and I don’t want to have to do a new corner for it.

I love this one. Little fox came out perfectly (since we already sacrificed the horse to the Amish quilt gods). I have to do the corners still, but I don’t have any pink fabrics so I have to wait until I can go through my mom’s stash. The colonial knots in the silk ribbon for the cherry blossoms were so fun to do. It looks even better in person.

My first attempt at an animal. At least it looks like a cat, even though trying to outline it in satin stitch using my machine was a *pain.*

I love the view of the leaves up close. I haven’t decided if I’m going to add more or not. The original is *full* of leaves on top of leaves, but I might be satisfied with it the way it is.
