Fawkes

I've started to  make the objects that sit on top of the bookcase of POD2.    Here is Fawkes the Phoenix:

 
You will notice there is a slight error in the pattern.  I could have redone that section of the tail, but it was a complicated section and would have taken a long time.  Instead, I just patched over the break with a red piece of fabric and sewed it down by hand.  My longarmer will be able to see the mistake, but the quilting muggles will probably not notice.

 
He will eventually get a button eye.

That is GREAT! He would look good (reversed) on the corner of my bookshelf, when I get it done. I'm planning on a dragon on the left side, reading the Mauraders Map.
