The little Owl is only tiny maybe 2 and a half inches tall (can't be bothered to find a measuring tape at the moment. Its really a test run as I really want to make H a wheat/lavender bag for his bed, the one he has now is old and store bought, if I can't make it myself I may have to call upon one of my crafty friends who are far better at sewing than I am.
a closer look... his eyes are made from vintage black buttons (thanks Vintage Violet)
My sewing skills are improving slowly, not enough to be able to get a sewing machine and I don't know what the hell most of the paraphernalia is in fabric shops, but that doesn't normally stop me when I want to figure something out for myself. And I'm lucky enough to have some lovely blogging friends to help me when I get myself into a muddle, again.
owl got back... scrap of my old navy jeans
The decorator is here to paint the living room so it can be a real living room and get our house that bit closer to being a real home. I really should be tackling painting the kitchen and not blogging but I rather not make a fool of myself with my untidy wall painting antics, at least not in front of the decorator anyway. I paint pictures messily enough no one wants to see me tackle walls, and especially not ceilings. Pictures of the house soon I promise when there are a few things to look at and not cringe about.
p.s. I miss Old Navy

He's really cute.
Perhaps you could make a whole nest of them.
It's so cute. :D

Your owl turned out so cute! I agree a nest full is a great idea!
No Old Navy in the UK...Gasp! Can you order online?
Another vote for cute here.
He's so cute! I love owls...
I love him! He is so sweet. I'm working on an owl too although I doubt he will be near as good as yours. I'm attempting felting for the first time. We'll see. I love that he is made from recycled clothing. Is Old Navy in the UK now or did you have them from a previous visit to home?
Oh, I think he is SOO cute!!!
Apryl, what a shame you are so far away as I made some wheat sacks recently and could have sent you one
thanks everyone.. you have really cheered me up with your lovely comments on my little wonky owl.. I must admit I have smiled everytime I look at him perched on the window sill because I made him.
He is gorgeous! Thanks for stopping by my blog!
Cute!! I just wanted to let you know that I have featured you on Cuteable today. http://cuteable.com/
He is lovely, its a huge shame there is no Old Navy in the UK, I really wish they'd ship internationally....
