I finally worked up an entry for the
Play Date Cafe's Challenge (#62), hopefully I can figure out how to get it linked correctly to be entered to win (keep your fingers crossed!). Each week the design team over a
PDC issues a challenge revolving around a specific color palette. Most of the entries involve paper and cardstock, but mine is all fabric! Here is the color palette for Challenge #62:
I interpreted it with a simple nine patch block as a background and appliqued an owl with button eyes to the center. I machine stitched a branch and hand quilted the leaves in the pink corner squares. I think it turned out cute. Now that I've accomplished one of their challenges, I think I will make some more blocks to turn into a book........ stay tuned!
Oh its soooooo cute!!!! I love what you've done here :D Those sweet little button eyes are delightful!! Very fun take on the colors and so glad you joined in the fun at The Play Date Cafe!
ReplyDeleteHow darling! I love to see different takes on challenges - especially when they are done with textiles!
ReplyDeleteThis is beyond FAB! LOVE the patches and the owl but that branch is the best detail for me!
ReplyDeleteWe absolutely adore mixed media projects in The Cafe and this is one beautiful piece! Just a perfect blend of our color combination indeed!
