Busy Bee

I managed to do some sewing today, yippee.  I wanted to work on the Out of Africa Bee blocks for Jen's month.  She has asked for animals to make a book for her children (2, 4 and 6 I think).  To make the bocks relevant to me, I have based them on animals we have had.  

This is Twiglet, a Vanilla Tipped African Pygmy hedgehog


And here is a machine embroidery version of him



 And this is Blue Boy my budgie


. . . with a green version of him as I had no suitable blue fabric, so maybe this should be called Green Girl




And there will be a block to depict Boris the skink,


but I cant find the stuff I need, so he will be created next weekend after my lovely friend Jacqui has lend me some "stuff"
