Innovative Quilt Part 3

Luckily our group meeting for May was postponed by a week, so I managed to catch up with this quilt.  The 3rd and last owl was appliqued and stitched - ready for embellishing as well.

 
 
9 of the 10 traditional blocks are also complete.
 
 
 
And last but not least - the first owl is complete .
 
 
 
With our next meeting planned for the 18th of June, I am still under pressure to get the other pair embellished, but after conquering this one, I feel a lot more confident.

Even Missy and Vlerrie (the cat) admired it.
