Saturday May Dark Green Butterflies

I've noticed I've got some really dark greens. These are some of the lighter of those. I'm linking up over at the Rainbow Scrap Challenge.... see the button on the side panel.

Have a lovely Memorial Day weekend.

Birds and POD 20

Evening Grosbeaks came by one day to visit out patio/bird feeder, and I got some pictures. (They are a mustard yellow, black and white with a gross beak.)

 (The other bird at our makeshift watering bowl is a  baby starling.

We used to see them ( the evening grosbeaks) when we lived in Wisconsin and Minnesota, but this is the first time we are seeing them in the West. (We live in Vancouver Washington now.)

Finished my POD 20 block this afternoon, too. I did a lot of remodeling of it.  The pattern was to be Hermione's blue flame in a jam jar, but there was no jar. I used some sparkly white fabric to make the glass part of the jar. I like it.

Sew - that's it for today.  Hope you have a wonderful weekend.

POD 19

The top book will be 'Hogwarts, A History' and the bottom book is the 'History of Magic'. I've got a lot of embroidery to do.

May - Green Saturday

I've only 2 more to show. Can't quite get into the dark green butterflies. I do like these two tone on tones.

If you'd like to see more dark green blocks, check out the Rainbow Scrap Challenge. You will be glad you did.

Nuther One

I have another to show, and another in the works... (not showing that one)

This is it, I'm afraid.  It is green month, and there aren't green butterflies - maybe that's why I'm not so enthused.
I'm linking up with the Rainbow Scrap Challenge at soscrappy. See you there.

H2H Donation Finished.

Here it is with it's light blue binding...Done!  (Notice the Hubby feet at the side. He likes to model. Oh and I left the picture at this angle because I can keep it bigger and the feet out the side are funnier.  Makes him look magical - doesn't it?)

 Showing a bit of the binding and the backing. The butterflies go with this Kaffe Fassett fabric, I think.  Showing the quilting here, too. I made Xs through the 16 patches and wiggly lines through the Xs. I think it turned out pretty good. I'll try the Good Night Irene setting of 16 patches again. I enjoyed making this quilt. (I used as many interesting fabrics as I could. It's going to Em's Happy Chemo, so I wanted lots of fun squares to look at. There are some bright yellow ones with owls that are talking. One says Wow and another says Good Job, there is a Bravo and a Super, too.)

Sorry this is out of focus, but just another close up. Next time the 16s will be more concentrated color so it won't interfere with the Xs. Live and learn, right? 

So I'm off to share this on Can I get a Whoop Whoop... and probably over at Crazy Mom Quilts, too.  See you tomorrow with a new butterfly - I still have to make one to share.

POD 18

The potion is Felix Felicis... you can tell by the rest of the book that it's about good luck. I don't know if there is such a book on the list, but I wanted to make it.
Now on to butterflies for a few hours.
Thanks for stopping by.
