I love this, and want to make it. I paid for the pattern and can't figure out how to download it.

Thank you :) I was going to use the cream for the bow hair until I realized I was using that as my background fabric. The substitution worked out even better.

My tablet corrected and I didn't proof quick enough. That should have been a piano or an oboe? They are the instruments played in our house.

Thank you!! It happened to me before as well, I don't like auto-correct for that reason! I hadn't consider the oboe, but I will definitely keep that in mind. As for the piano, I am going to design the sash using the piano keys for my mini quilt.
