Rabbit attached

I started working from home last month. I haven't had much time to sew as I immersed myself in learning all I could about the products I will be selling. I LOVE LipSense lipstick, so much so that I try to get everyone I know to try it. 4-18 Hour wear times are great. I wasn't a lipstick fan before because it wouldn't stay on. I no longer worry, I know it will stay.

My son was helping and he asked that I not crop the picture. He didn't want my shoe missing or his chair. 
Now i need to decide how to quilt it.

I purchased fabric for the cougar but it didn't match. I will wait until i find a better match before attaching. I DID do a second rabbit in gray but it is a gift and i can't share it yet.

Completed Cougar

The Cougar pattern testing is complete. Pattern testing is new to me but I absolutely LOVE working with Yanicka, she is a wonderful artist. I'm glad I wasn't overlooked with my limited amount of paper piecing quilts finished. I'd have to go back and look to see if any have been posted to know for sure.

 I was surprised that the prep work took me 2-3 days. Tracing templates took a long time and it was taxing on the shoulders if not spread out with movement in between tracing sessions.  

The sewing took me 2-3 broken up days. I put everything else on the back burner, EVEN Dinner, because I didn't want to lose any of the 109 pieces of the pattern. Yep you heard me correctly. That number is large but don't let it scare you.

I'm not one to remember to take pictures as i go, so here it is before figuring out what i want to back it with and turn it into a quilt for a nephew.

There is only one fabric i would change so that is a huge bonus.
