Looking Through Rose Colored Glasses

It's my day, along with other fabulous and creative people, to share our 
Sew It - Show It Challenge project for the "Rose Colored Glasses" blog hop. 


What was the challenge?
Your sewn project must have one or more of the following:

Rose/pink fabric
Eyeglasses
Roses
Positive Words

My steampunk owl sees everything positive and beautiful through his rose colored glasses. He's very much into quilting, which is why he's surrounded himself with a few perfect tools for a sewing room.

My "Rose Colored Glasses" tote bag.



It measures about 18" x 22"...nice size for carrying my projects to sew with friends.


The fabrics are Benartex's Whisper Weave by Nancy Halvorsen. My friends and I found the fabric on sale during a big event at Sew Yeah Quilting. It was such a fun and costly visit for us!

My project was a slight change-up from a bag I made for a Benartex ambassador challenge 
using their logo. He does have a rose colored hat and wings!

  5. These guys look like great additions to your family. Do they have names? They are so cool they should really have names. Changing out the glasses was a terrific idea.
