Patriotic Folk Animal Blocks

I'm putting one of my hand stitching projects together so that I have something when it's time to wait such as bowling practice (twice a week), the bus stop, substitute teaching, and speech therapy.  Since I already had these block pieces cut out I put them together yesterday.  I still need to stitch in the animal legs from bias strips.  Then I can let the hand stitching (embroidery x's for stars on the "flags", a mane, and tails.  I'm not sure what I'll do for eyes yet.)

Patriotic Folk Animals is a pattern in the book Americana Quilts by Sandy Bonsib.  I cut these pieces out last year around this time and set them aside.  Time to stitch...

I'm linking up at Em's Scrap Bag for Moving It Forward Monday.
