Challenge: Head - book club chapter 15
House: Hufflepuff
Project:
I (unusually for me) used a kit to make this because I loved the design. Although I come across as very confident, I’m actually not - I tend to box myself in to following the ‘rules’. Even if I don’t agree that they’re the best way I assume that they were made by someone who knows better than me. This design reminds me that that isn’t necessarily true, and sometimes I have to step up and step out when if it seems scary.
Oh, and just in case that doesn’t follow the rules of the prompt closely enough, there are also 8 colours in the design :grin:

I LOVE THAT!! :fist:

AWESOME! :thread: :heartpulse:

A new Hermione’s Book Club prompt has been posted! Apologies for the delay.

I kind of wandered off into the woods in a feral funk to commune with my inner goblin for April and somehow missed all the fun of the Weasley Wizarding Wheezes and the triumphant return of @Noodle (a belated welcome to Hufflpepuff!) but I am back. The Hufflepuff Spreadsheet has been updated, and I would like to announce @Whistlefish as the well deserved winner of the Hufflepuff Easter Egg Hunt. You can see her awesome little bunny painting here: [link].
