Slow progress and a wonderful quilt

Sorry about this picture! It is very hard to get a long skinny picture like this. This is my progress on the Vignette blocks 2 and 3. I decided to stitch it first on a long piece rather than joining it in the middle. There is a lot of stitching but I do enjoy it. A bit worried about stitching 4 of these though for the side borders of the quilt. It will look lovely. Thankfully there are 3 months between magazines!
I also managed to do the last block of the "My Garden BOM" and will leave the finishing till next month. Too much stitching, above, to do.
Paddy also picked up her wonderful owl quilt from Robyn. It is so beautiful and Robyn has done a great job of the quilting.

Robyn also showed us her beautiful needleturn applique that she is working on. It is a lovely quilt by Blackbird Designs. It is all so motivating and there aren't enough hours in the day!

Your stitching is looking wonderful on Vignette, great idea to stitch it in one piece!

And I am totally in love with that owl quilt, I know they have been extremely popular for a while now, but I still can't get enough of them, so so adorable!

erm I just went through a few blogs because I was wondering where I saw that cute little owl quilt!

Can you tell me what the name of that pattern is and who designed it? I would love to make one of those
