A new owl today. I used the fabric left over from making the bumble bee.  I love making owls. They are the largest of the birds I am making right now and have just the right amount of detail to sink my teeth into.  This new guy is in the shop now.

The make-along Flickr pool is starting to grow.  How are you doing with your project?

    The tilt of her neck, and arch of her back, and the talons – just so expressive.
    My make-along is going fabulously. Just in my head!
