Owly Bandana

My lovely friend Rita picked pinks and oranges for her furry friend to adorn a bandana. I think she should wear it, but she said something about displaying it. Doesn't matter if it's a dust cloth, as long as she liked it!

 

Owl Swear Owl Stop Making Owl's

Soon. Very Soon. (But never bad puns.  They are my bread and butter)

Back to the matter at hand. This little guy.  He even rattles!  Next time, note to self, move his feet up higher.

First, I cut him out. I drew out the shapes. Sometimes I used circles, but more often than not I free handed.

There he is, all put together. Too bad you can't see his cute little feet. Next doll I need to remember to sew them up higher.  I also didn't stuff him as much as I have before...hopefully that helps with coming apart at the seems ;)

And lookey what I put on his tushy!

Stuffed Owl

Pillow or Doll?

You choose.  I free handed the pattern...just took some elements of different stuffed owls I liked and tried it out on my own.  I like the result...I think next time I'll try for more owl shape in the fabric, instead of just relying on the felt.
