TDITM July: Swan a-Swimming

The. Very. Last. Bird. Yay! Welcome to July’s new project, y’all. If you are participating in my Twelve Days in Twelve Months sewing challenge to complete one Twelve Days ornament a month, it’s time to sew the swan!

After completing June’s challenge, we are now officially halfway through TDITM! *high fives to all of us* More than halfway if you count the number of ornaments! Let’s stay the course! The swan construction is pretty similar to the goose, so you should find that it all goes swimmingly. Ah ha ha. And no second bonus ornament to sew. Fantastic. I plan to make my swan using the coral/copper/mustard end of my chosen Benzie color palette. I also plan not to wait until the last two days of the month like I did for Goose. Fingers crossed.

Hey, add a photo of your completed ornaments in the comments of the pinned Facebook post, or tag your July Instagram post with @mmmcrafts and #twelvedaysin12months to share your progress! (Please, no photos of my pattern pages.)

Buy the Swan a-Swimming pattern if you don’t have it yet. (Or if you need the whole series, the 1-12 bundle is the best discounted price and contains bonus materials!)
