new owls in the owlery

I finally finished the rest of the owls I had started a while ago...Once I finished I realized how freaking cute they are!!! So I gathered them up for a class picture :)

This is them hanging out mingling talking to each other I mean after all they just met...plus they have to find a partner otherwise they will get lonely when they are given away.



Class picture! They were very well behaved...well except the zebra print and yellow one I have to keep my eye on that one...


These two are my favorites!





I think I might have to start an Etsy shop soon...

new love...OWLS

I found the cutest way to use my fabric scraps. I got the original idea from a tutorial over at Moonstiches. I made my own pattern to fit the way I wanted them to be. It was easier to use colored felt with the cardboard and sew that onto the bottom instead of covering the cardboard first. I made these as gifts to mail to some friends. I think they are adorable and were easy and fun to make.

I also made a little drawstring bag to go with each of the two sets (2 owls per bag). I embroidered a small red heart and tied it with some ribbon and twine. I think it turned out really cute. It was also another easy project to do.

I'm working on some new ideas for some cloth dolls right now they are in the trial and error stage but I'm hoping to post a finished product in a few days.
