Sitting Hare

The sitting hare became the last finished project of 2022. When I first saw the beautiful creation by Amy Tedge, I just couldn´t resist buying the pattern. The aim was (and still is) to make a bag for myself.  

This is the original work by Amy:

My colorway of the background is quite different from the original. It is not the fact that I wouldn´t like it, I simply haven´t such lovely vintage-looking fabrics in my stash.

I followed the (very good written) instructions for the appliqué and embroidered outlines and flowers,  nevertheless, I added more quilting on the background. I must admit, I love hand quilting... 

The bag isn´t finished yet, but the appliqué and embroidery panel can be declared finished.

Happy quilting!
