September BoM and a Giveaway!!

Hello to everyone!
Today you're all in for a real treat!

Not only is it the first of the month - so that means a new Block of the Month in our Wild Babies series.... its also..... my business' fourth birthday! So that means we're having a world wide party!



Lets get started with the Block of the Month for September...


It's a cute baby Otter... I think they're called pups... and this one is a fluffy sea otter. They're not so sleek looking as the river otters. I also think this one is a little older, but still a pup...
I look for photos on the web and then make a pattern from all the info gathered. This one with his arm waving at us just couldn't not be made...
I hope you all enjoy sewing this one too!




 Isn't he just too stinkin' cute!!
The pattern was tested for us by Carlene and Joan

Thanks so very much! I love them both! He's so cute I want to hug it....


****************************
Now onto our Giveaway part......


Do you remember this Cat and Bird pattern I made for a Charley Harper swap??





Well, Today he's part of the Giveaway....
Yaaaay!!

The pattern measures 18x20" and is on the intermediate level, but I must warn you - those eyes - well, don't say you didn't know....


Don't leave yet.... there's more.....




This is the Bethlehem Star.... its a feathered star.... and I just couldn't resist making it into an easier paper pieced pattern.

I love the way you could make this in Christmas fabrics or even in monochrome fabrics to get a snowflake....


The pattern is 16" and on the easy intermediate level...
I'm feeling a cute Christmas lap quilt coming on....................


Enjoy!



GIVEAWAY HAS CLOSED.............

The Block of the Month is here my Craftsy Shop......

Have a Great Week-End!

Thanks so much for the freebie patterns. Your work never ceases to amaze me, and I love the fact that you are so generous. Many of us LOVE what you do, but paying for all the beautiful patterns from everyone we follow is difficult, at best. I don't always make all the patterns offered, but appreciate being able to save them for the future. THANK YOU!!!
