Owl and Hare Hollow HQAL

I’ve made pretty good progress with my Owl and Hare Hollow quilt, three weeks ago I’d quilted 24 blocks, so not quite half way…

…I’ve been concentrating on mainly the bottom rows so I have complete rows. I now realise why I kept missing off the bottom one, I find them a lot more fiddly as it isn’t so firm in the hoop.

I quilted round the flower vase and also a circle inside the churn block square…

This morning I quilted round the Dresden ring and also in the centre, so I just need to do my big circle round the sashing. The little purple dots you can see are Frixion pen marks so they will disappear with a bit of heat.

Once I’ve done the sashing circle I will have completed thirty blocks, so well over the half-way point of twenty-five. Sounds even better now I can say nineteen to go!

This Hand Quilt Along is an opportunity for hand quilters and piecers to share and motivate one another. We post every three weeks, to show our progress and encourage one another.  If you have a hand quilting project and would like to join our group contact Kathy at the link below.

About craftycreeky

I live in a busy market town in Yorkshire with my husband, kids, dogs and chickens. I love trying new crafts, rediscovering old ones, gardening, walking...anything creative really I started this blog after my New Year resolution worked so well. My resolution (the first one I've ever kept!) was to post a photograph of my garden on Facebook every day. My hope was that I would then see what was good in the garden and not just weeds and work, which was my tendency. The unexpected side-effect was that I have enjoyed many more hours in the garden. I am hoping that 'The Crafty Creek' will have the same effect. Happy creating!
