Soooo....we'll do the monthly projects on here! I would create a button and such but I don't think this blog is quite big enough for that. Plus, since I'm going to do it as a casual thing on my blog, I probably won't get any of the samples done on time (or, let's be honest, ever).
My plan for these was to find a bunch of free tutorials on the internet each month around a different theme, which might be a technique, or in the case of this month, a critter. The original plan for October was to find projects around the theme of "owls" in honor of Halloween. Searching for free owl patterns is a black hole...there are so many and they are sooo cute! Also, I found out while searching for "paper pieced owl" that apparently the term can also mean objects made out of pieces of paper. Who knew?
So, here are all of the free tutorials I gathered up for various owl projects. Admittedly, most are not quilting-related, but they're all cute and fun. Click on the text below each image to go to the original website that hosts the tutorial.
And those same cute wool owl ornaments were used to make this equally cute owl mobile by Jill
Okay, that's all for now! If you know of other free owl patterns, let me know and I'll add them to the list!
Amazing how different and cute all these owls are. There must be a lot of night owl quilters doing this work!
ReplyDeleteYour Christmas projects look like fun ones. The man's apron is really cool. Good luck on the Christmas tree apron. Our Christmas tree each year is that fat, quilted tree you made us several years ago. It sits on the coffee table or the dining room table and looks very festive !
