Owl Tree ~ June Block ~ Wild BOM

Owl Tree Block

my design for

the June ~ Block 5 for the 

"It's a Wild Life" Block of the Month

The background of this block is pieced.

I drew this layout of the block on EQ but

I used graft paper, pencil and my own measurements for design and cutting.

The owl is the main component of the applique pieces.

There are several smaller appliques, including a snail,

that are optional and may be added.

Most of these appliques were handdrawn by me ...

... and my furry helper ...

"the old-fashioned way,"

with paper , pen and light box.

The snail was drawn on EQ,

as my applique efforts are entering the computer age.

This block measures 12 and 1/2 inches wide by 24 and 1/2 inches high.

It is designed to be placed in the June position

 of this master layoutof this mystery quilt.

I am also designing the November block.

The background of the June block will transition 

into the reverse L-shape of the November block.

You may wish to plan your background fabrics accordingly. 

I have also designed an optional

Bonus Block for this month

and it will be released on June 15th.
