November’s Awkward Animal Portraits Pattern Release is Here!

It’s time for our next installment of the Awkward Animal Portraits series! So who’s this pattern is for? Wait for it, wait for it…the birds!!! (hardy har har) 


What better way to celebrate these fine feathered living dinosaur friends of ours than to give you not one, not two, not three, but FOUR festive ways to depict these aerial avian artistes!!

Finished sizes (clockwise from upper left): 27” x 27” • 24” x 21” • 24” x 33” • 30” x 24”

Some fly fact about birds you might wanna know:


#1. According to National Geographic, scientists have an answer for the age old dispute over which came first, the chicken or the egg.  Reptiles were laying eggs thousands of years before chickens appeared.  The first chicken came from an egg laid by a bird that was not quite a chicken.  Therefore, the egg came first.


#2. The common phrase “eat like a bird” should mean something quite different!  Many birds eat twice their weight in food each day.  In fact, a bird requires more food in proportion to its size than a baby or a cat.

You can get your downloadable Birds pdf patterns now and see the rest of the available critters here!

Enjoy! -sk

Awkward Animal Portraits Series: Seasonal Special Edition

If you’ve been following along with our Awkward Animal Portraits (AAP) quilt pattern series, you’ll know we’re now ready to humanely release our October creature, and in true nocturnal partying weekend style, a certain someone is oh-so-fashionably late, but as we know, better late than never.

So without further delay, please welcome our first Seasonal Special in the AAP series with a big round of wing flapping:  

This is BAT!

Here are some amazing BAT facts you should know: 

Bat is the only mammal that can fly. 

Bat can see with its ears. ITS EARS, we tell ya! 

Bat works hard to control pests.

Bat helps produce some of our favorite foods. 

Even though folks think Bat is more closely related to rodents, guess what? Bat is actually more closely related to humans. Yep, it’s true. 

Bat is also super cute, so in conclusion, kindly love Bat!

Finished size: 81” x 81”. PDF pattern available here.

Official Debut: Awkward Animal Portraits!

I’m very excited to share with you the launch of a brand spanking new harebrained project!

WOOOOHOOOOO!

After much intensive behind-the-scenes work and top secret scheming with partner-in-crime in this feral endeavor, Jessee Maloney, we are proud to reveal our brand new Awkward Animal Portraits (AAP) quilt pattern series!

Beginning today, we will be releasing fresh new monthly PDF patterns into the wild with each set going live the 1st of the month in my shop.**

Each quilt possesses its own distinct personality and emotional baggage; some will have bonus content. There will be a wide array of loud and proud creatures showcased, from the dopey, nutty, goofy, overzealous and obsessively clingy to the bewildered, startled, mildly horrified, a tad incensed and possibly slightly disgusted and disappointed.  

You’re sure to find an Awkward Animal Portrait you’ll want to give a forever home to, we guarantee it!

Did I mention there will be Special Edition releases every so often as well? Yep, well I just mentioned it. You are now officially ready to (humanely) trap one of these awkward animals for your every own.

First up, we have not one but TWO quilt patterns for you! Could August get any more awkward? We don’t think so, but we’ll sure try!

Cat/Chat/Gato/Kissa Finished size: 46″x52″ 

Dog/Chien/Perro/Koira Finished size: 40″x52″

Find them both available for adoption HERE!** **Use promo code AUGCATDOGSPECIAL to receive $2 smackers off your patterns for this inaugural week only! Promotion ends midnight EST on August 7, 2017.
