Included in my fabric were some HR pieces. In an attempt to fussy cut and make the most of them I have gone for simple stars. It honestly was not to make the task easy (really!), but so that Terri's precious hoard got the spotlight.
Two 12.5" blocks. |
I promise, this block is not nearly as wonky as it looks. I had to think for quite a while before I was sure I could make all those wee gnomes be facing the same way. |
Love the Jungle Book. Makes me want to break out into song. Something that no one else wants. Because I can't sing for crap. |
I am particularly pleased with the fussy cutting here. Because you can't tell that there was a monkey between the elephant and Mowgli. |
