PP - Otis the Owl
I don't do PP much often. It is technique I like to use for challenging myself. I felt I needed a little challenge last week and I picked pattern which I saved to my computer 4 years ago.
So there is a hope for all those saved patterns. One day maybe I'll make them! You can find this one here. To be honest I don't get the numbers marked on it and I had a little problem at the bottom.
There is a tiny piece missing in the pattern but it's an easy fix even for not so experienced PP like me.
The thing I don't like much about PP is that you create a lot of scraps. Unfortunately I don't see use for that pile of scraps at all.
What are my plans for this block? Well I talked about some library tote. This block is perfect for it and I actually saved it for that reason. It just took a bit of time to make it.
Note; My little giveaway is still on if you are interested in.

So cute! I love the text print you used for the owl. It really works perfectly.
ReplyDeletelove your library owl, he looks a little fierce like all librarians should. They say that pp uses up scraps, but my scraps are always too little
ReplyDeleteI agree about the amount of scraps generated by paper piecing. I really like to try to precut my shapes to reduce the amount, but it isn't always an option. I love how fierce your owl looks due to your fabric selections. :)
ReplyDeleteI am so far behind on reading blogs that it is not funny, but this is tooo cute not to congratulate you. It will be a lovely library bag.
