Happy Birthday Kathryn

January 4, 2020

Bows (from the Splendid Sampler series)

I had a lot of trouble with this block. It was meant to be paper-pieced but since some of the pieces were rectangles I decided I didn’t need to use the paper-piecing method for all of it. I didn’t get the proportions right and ended up taking it all apart (except for the part I paper-pieced) and starting over.

I had a particular photo of Kathryn in mind that I was going to post with her card (she’ll be pleased I didn’t find it). Her hair was all in curls and the caption was going to be “What bow would you choose for her hair?”
