Whooos on the cover! What’s on the cover? No. Whooo! LOL. Reminds me of the old Abbott and Costello skit….geez if that isn’t “dating” myself. LOL
When my copy of Quiltmaker’s 100 magazine arrived I was sooo excited to see my Whooo block on the cover. I’m still doing the funky, happy dance.
If you’re new to my blog…welcome!
For today’s hop I thought I’d do something a bit different. Let’s have some fun using the block in various settings.
Whooo says your owl has to be brown? It looks great in unexpected colors too. I love using the stomach to show off fun fabric prints.
Maybe a woodsy feeling Whooo quilt is what you need.
Or place a set of owls on a branch for a sweet table runner.
Try flipping the branches around for a whimsical baby blanket.
I got together with a few of my friends and we did a virtual round robin using a picture of the Whooo block for the center. Isn’t this a fun little quilt!
♥THANK YOU♥ all for creating with me!

I’d love to see the things you make using the block so do stop back and share.

That's very cute and I know of one specific quilter friend who I'm sure will be making some of those.
Such a cute block! Love it. Sorry just read, only US for the give away. But now it's already gone, lol!
Whoo-hooo! Congrats on making the cover photo! What a wonderful surprise and honor for you. I really like owls too and would love to make your block!
Super cute block and very versatile too! I love all of your design ideas, but I'm partial of the two love Owls on the tree. Too cute, what a hoot!

Love your Whooo block. I especially like the setting of two owls on the tree branch.
Nice job on your post today! Here's a true story about your block: I write the patterns for Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks, and I helped create the index of blocks at the back of the issue. When I proofed the index, I had to actually count the number of O's in "Whooo?"--and I found that a few O's were missing! In the end, we got it right and your block is a winner. Thanks for being with us on the blog tour. Have a great week!

Your Whooo block is adorable and the quilts and table runner are so cute! I think it would be fun to use it with some other animal blocks for a baby quilt. Thanks for a chance to win.
Congrats Ms Covergirl! :-) What fun it was to work on the virtual round robin with you. I want to make the finished quilt too! ;-)
Congrats Cover Girl! Love how the round robin came out. I want to make it myself! ;-)

CONGRATULATIONS Your block is so adorable. I know there are pink, red, yellow, brown and white owls at least
Your owl is adorable. I would buy the book for your pattern alone.
Whooooo doesn't love an owl block--congrats!!
How cute those owls are, I'm imagining solid color owls, in a quilt - with one is a vibrant print and the other owls eyes all staring at him! You got my creative juices flowing....

Being a lover of all things owl, your block and how you use it in different projects is awesome.
I LOVE this owl!
Your owl is adorable and the block makes into a sweet quilt. I do love owls and waiting in eager anticipation for a burrowing owl that shows up yearly near our neighborhood. It would be fun to make a quilt in his (or her?) honor.
Thank you for joining in on the designing and for the sweet giveaway!
I love the owl love birds on the table runner! This would be adorable for something smaller too, such as a potholder -- but pretty fussy applique.
I just love whimsical Owls! Great block :)
