A Hoot of a Day.....

I want to show you my new Glambag....


Thank you so much Teresa... I just love it .... have already used it and received compliments

Yesterday we had our Quilt Group AGM and challenge.... last year those of us who wanted to participate were given two squares of fabric (about 6" square) to make owls... the fabric could be used in only 2 owls and we had to use a minimum of 90% of the fabric and we had a specific size banner to make. 









There is an amazing assortment..... have you got a favourite? ... I'll do another post and show you the one that won and also some close ups of the ones made by the ladies (well they aren't really ladies) that boost me up each week....

Swish new bag. Lucky you.

Maybe not ladies, but very talented.

Too many to choose just one favourite, tickled by the three wise owls, love the winter tree owls and the wise owl rhyme.

They're all beautiful.

I'm glad you like your bag Fiona xx
Those owl banners are AMAZING!!! I'm so glad I wasn't the one trying to pick a winner.. that would be impossible. They are all so fabulous and different. Jack came up to the computer as I was going through all the photos and he absolutely loves the bottom right one in the last photo. It is very clever. What a wonderful group of stitchers xx

Love the owls, such a huge range of ideas and styles. So love seeing challenges like this and everyones take on the same idea.

My fav are two:

The last one in the last picture, blue with just 4 eyes, and another one is in the third picture from the bottom, second from the right - bluishgrey with dragonflies.

Love all the amazing owls. I really like the two horizontal panels in the very last photo. Very different and amazing!

What an amazing collection of owls - and how difficult to choose a favourite! Like Karen I thought the last two were very original and so completely different to each other - one manic and one oh so fluffy and sweet. Love the bag.
