Sundrop Critters 2010:
American Prairie Critters
Buffin,
the Sundrop American Bison
6" appliqué block pattern
free pdf
|
This year,
we'll be visiting some of the fauna that inhabits the American prairie
that stretches from Mexico through Canada. The patterns will be
free the
month they debut. After that, they can be purchased.
The American bison, also called the American buffalo (although they are
not a buffalo), is the heaviest land animal of North America - adult
males can weigh a ton. There are actually two species of bison:
the wood bison of northern Canada and the plains bison that roamed much
of North America. Once bordering on extinction, their numbers in the
wild have rebounded a little. The Endangered Species Act lists
wood bison as endangered and plains bison as being under review.
Some ranchers now raise bison as a food source much like cattle, but
these bison have been crossbred with cattle and are not genetically
pure bison.

Sundrop Critters 2005-06
Do to interruptions, it took two years to design a full dozen critters,
but they're finally available as a set. This set has no unifying
theme, so I'm calling it the Sundrop Critters Potpourri Pack!
|
|
Set of twelve 6"
appliqué block patterns. Critters from top left: whooping crane,
panda, owl, mosquito, rainbow trout, chipmunk, raccoon, poodle, spider,
stork, mallard duck and sea turtle.

Scruffy has been begging for his fair share of attention
for himself and other canine creatures, so he now has his own page
for the dogs.

Sunny's
Page
This is where all the cats hang out and try to teach the
world about cats and everything else under the sun. They tend
to argue a lot about the "right" way to do things, so please forgive
me if pages don't get uploaded in a timely manner.
