Well, I finished the owls, and I'm pretty pleased with them. Honestly, I didn't really know what I was doing. I just tried to imitate things I've found online (with special inspiration from Danielle's Gufetto and Pinkie the Owl -- www.themakingsofeveryday.blogspot.com). I found the owl pattern at http://www.sewsimple.com/articles/otis_the_owl_patterns , and then I just adapted it for my project. I used scrap fabric, a fleece remnant, and some felt and buttons that I had. I've never embroidered or appliqued anything before, except for some wings of a little bird that I made recently. Hopefully my skills will improve with practice. These owls will reappear in Ellie and Robin's Easter baskets.
