This is my 33rd quilt. It’s a twin size at 62”W x 78”L before washing. The Mod Owls pattern is by Jenny Pedigo and Helen Robinson for Sew Kind of Wonderful. The kit was purchased from Missouri Star in July 2018 but I didn’t start sewing until May 2019, finishing in June 2019. The quilt and pillowcase are for my granddaughter Bennett Rose, for her 8th birthday in February 2020. This was fun to make because of the batik fabric and curved owls – my first effort at sewing curves. The free-motion long arm quilting was beautifully completed by Lyn Durbin. At my request, she used a darker thread so that the leaves and curls would show on the light batik background as well as the owl fabrics. My sister and I bought a set of books to go with this owl themed quilt. The series is Guardians of Ga’Hoole” by Kathryn Lasky. I hope the grandkids will enjoy sitting under the owl quilt reading owl stories. Posted by Peggy at Bothtwins on February 5, 2020.
