And now, Pink Cow!

 I am continuing the cow series for my RSC2015 (click here) and thankfully the color this month is pink.
I like pink.
I like cows.
I now like pink cows! But when you pull out little scraps of florals they don't always look like they will in the finished project, for instance the sides of my girl's face are a bit mauve. I thought, what if I put a little heart ornament on her forehead??
It's not permanent, just sticking there for a picture. I will likely remove it but still...kind of like it.
 She seems to require long eyelashes as well.
In the quilting I think.

Here she is with Blue cow. Adorable. I kind of imagine them with the sashing, very Warhol-like.
You can't tell from there but her mouth is little heart fabric.
All from the pink scrap bin and white scrap bin.
The pattern was as challenging as I remembered. See the post on Blue cow(click here)  for the pattern source.

    I like the heart. Keep it! Gives her a little bling to go with her to-be-quilted eyelashes. :) www.quiltartbymegan.com

    First, I fell in love with this year's Valentine - so beautiful. Now it's with the pink cow - so cute! Yes, she needs some eyelashes. Thanks for linking to WIPs Be Gone - so in love with your eye candy,LeeAnna.

    And she needs some earrings too! Can never have enough bling, even if you're a cow!

    No sashing, just cows . . . and I like her better without the heart on her forehead.

    Strawberry and Blueberry? They're adorable! And I would save the bling for the quilting. She's cute enough already!

    I like the pink cow, too! Are you going to have a different colored cow each month? That's a very cool challenge! What a great way to use up scraps!

    Love 'em both... although I'm more partial to pink. She is definitely pretty in pink... (How about earrings? Farmers use ear tags now, so earrings aren't so far fetched.)

    Love the heart ornament! I didn't think the sides of her face were mauve; it all looked awesome. What awesome blocks for the challenge. I'm thinking I should jump in on this yet! I have farmer relatives...

    Aw, love the colorful cows! Isn't it interesting how colors change depending what you put them with? I have that same "mauve" fabric and am always surprised at how different it can look. It works well with the other fabrics on your cow. I'm smiling just picturing the eyelashes.
