The owl on the right was made as I was making the Dear Jane quilt...in fact, this owl was one of the blocks Jane made and decided not to include in her quilt. These blocks have been referred to as "Alternative Universe Dear Jane" blocks by a secret society of quilters. In any case, the new owl was modified to fit the "Tiny Tuesday" format and in this case the name "Tiny" is used ironically.
The point of bringing this up is that typically we keep our pieces to at least an inch so there is room for the quarter inch seams. This is not necessarily the case for flip triangles and so the smaller owl has .75 inch flip triangles, especially around the eyes.
And here is a cow. Molly informed me that cows now own the internet and all posts most now feature cows. Molly assures me that cats expect to take the internet back for themselves by Friday at the latest.
I had not heard of other universe for Dear Jane. (Wow - even quilters are having Alternative Universes.) Love your blocks and love the fabrics you chose.
ReplyDeleteIs the cow in the alternate universe too? Lots of animals in your universe - must be expensive to feed them all!
ReplyDeleteAlfie says if Molly can keep a secret, he’d like to share that he never turned his internet over to those dang cows. (We did agree, however, that your blue cow was cute and perhaps even worthy).
ReplyDeleteI like cows myself and have watched a few cow videos on the internet, but cats still rule! (And I don't even live with a cat.) The even tinier owl is a hoot! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat? Not a PURPLE COW? if you know the saying, you must be near my age!
