Hi!

Just finished this owl!  In case you didn't get the hint from the title of the blog, I like owls.  I learned the basics of hardanger  last month and decided to play with it.  I went on-line and found a few pictures of owls done in hardanger but no free patterns.  My method was to sit with graph paper and try to copy a photo to make a pattern.  Once I got started I had to adjust some of the blocks but I am proud of my first attempt at an owl.
The original design was done by Janet Davies (http://www.jmddesigns.co.nz/blog.htm).  She has some really beautiful work on her blog, including several owls.
