Yes, I know — I have two block-of-the-month projects going, but I needed something to work on at our guild’s (sort of) monthly sewing days. One of the BOM projects is too quick for an all-day session, and the other requires my embroidery module; there’s not enough room for that at the sewing days, and I’d rather not haul my Bernina 790Pro, anyway.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>However, I’d found a set of adorable patterns on the Wonderfil<\/a> site sometime last year, posted monthly as yet another BOM, \u00a0and I’d downloaded them as they became available but never made them. So I’m doing a paper-pieced image of a different bird in each 12″ block, and I think it will be a perfect project for our sewing days. I made the first one, a canary, just to be sure I liked it. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
