First Bee Block Of The Month Done!

by | 28.01.2012 | Uncategorized | 29 comments

And a whole 4 days left in the month…

Anywho, Colby asked for Owls for her month in Sew Bee Joyful, any kind, made any way.  Here’s my offering, a paper pieced, rather kooky little guy.  I seem to be wearing this expression a lot these days in the day job:
Tomorrow I need to work out what I’m doing for Piece Bee With you.  Deborah wants mid-century modern designs, but my first attempt had WAY too many pieces (and Mr Owl has 42 pieces, to give you an idea of how many WAY too many might be…).  Wish me luck!

Linking up with Sunni:

    I love this. It just took me all afternoon to do my very first paper pieced block & it only had 21 pieces, but I think I have it now. Gotta love those points.
