Owl Embroidery - Block for March

I went to a workshop (Little Birdie Stitches) put on by the Keswick Ridge Quilters at the beginning of October, we we given an image to trace on out fabric for each month of the year.  I decided to use the owl from one of my assignments from school, so that mine will be different than everyone else's.

I figured it really didn't matter which month I started with, so the rainbow from the March block made this one the easy first choice.

I didn't even know that I enjoyed embroidering, but I am loving this experience and I am continuously thinking of new embroidery ideas. :)
