Mellow Yellow Cow
Oh little Buttercup....
Ain't she sweet?? Moo once for yes....
Here she is without the flower tiara and earrings
Seems kind of plain, so I went ahead and ironed them on! A decision!
It was another challenge.
It was hard to choose yellows so that they would contrast with the white background and still be fun prints. I love the daisy fabric, and had to actually cut into a half yard piece to get this instead of using scraps.
Here's a shot of the scrap bin, offering up many choices to me...
And a shot of the sewing table with the sections ready in order to be pieced.
I am sorry to report I had to re-sew about every stinkin' section at least once before it was done.
My husband heard the cursing, and asked, "haven't you made that cow before?"
er, Y E S
This pattern with it's angles, and color changes not marked is a challenge each. And. Every. Time.
Don't get me wrong... I LOVE the way it comes out.
I mean, just look at these three Amigos!
Moooove over!

Bovine LOVE . . . they are just WONDERFUL!
I love seeing these cows. The yellow one is just as lovely as the others.
Delightful. I think that the animals keep moving around and that's why I'm always having to use a seam ripper.
I just love your cows! I can't wait to see all of them together at the end of the year!
HAY buttercup , what's up? love your "bovine trio", so then is four a herd?

Hi LeeAnna,
Best earings I have ever seen on a cow! Much better than the usual number!
Love miss Buttercup! So Spring in the meadow!
Take care,

She's beautiful, just like her sisters! The tiara puts her in a league of her own. Easter bonnet next month?
Moooooooooooooo! Buttercup is sooooooo beautiful!
I think this last one is my favorite. So pretty. She seems to be one friendly cow.
Your technicolor cows are adorable! It's going to be such a fun quilt!

I am married to a farm boy and he would love this block. What flavor would your colorful cow's milk be? Blueberry, carmel, and strawberry? Lol
They look so different and all so cute! Thanks for sharing!!
I love your cows!!!! So beautiful.
I LOVE Buttercup and her two friends : )

Oh yes! a big loud MOOO
Those cows are just darling. What a cute pattern.
How fun! How many cows do you plan to make?
Gorgeous cows!
Lovely cows altogether - I wonder if the pattern is available somewhere...
Oh my word! These cows are just darling! How cute! I saw them on a link up with Freedmotion by the river and had to come look at them.
They look Super fun!
SO worth the effort! Love her tiara and earrings (she really did need them). Wonderful!
Give Cole a kiss for me. :- ) (I miss my Poodle every time I visit here!)
Thanks for linking up to #scaptastictuesday but it is only one link per person each month to give everyone an equal chance of winning please!
Love those cows though!
Love your cows!
So fun to come here and get my cute cow fix!
They need some long eyelashes to set off their beautiful eyes!
Aghhh, these are so fantastic! I love the brightly colored cows. I imagine them further framed like Polaroid blocks, hip colorful cow selfies!
I love the cows!
Love your herd!
So creative! Love your colorful cows!
I have a major crush on your cow blocks! They are so cute and just make me smile.
