Penguins

These little applique penguins are an early Christmas present from me and the lovely ladies at Fat Quarterly (an on-line patchwork magazine)

I’ve designed a free pattern for 5 penguins exclusively for them

so please, pop over there to see the other 3 penguins and get your free pattern.

I hope you like them!

    I love them! I downloaded the pattern (thanks, Fat Quarterly) and made my little quilt this afternoon ( minus the binding which may take awhile) Thanks for sharing the penguins!

    They’re lovely. I love the idea of a mag called Fat Quarterly! – sounds like the opposite of Slimmers World!!

    What a wonderful interview and photos of you and your workspace.
    I have patterns that I still haven’t made, so hopefully I can get healed and get in the sewing room.

    They are so, so cute. I still haven’t figured out how to do the drawing with the sewing machine. Last time I dropped the dog feed, the machine started to balk, so I feel great trepidation with it. But you really are a master!

    I love the penguins and I already look at Fat Quarterly all the time. I really like the piece in your blog header with the three geese. Lovely!
