A Hoot of a Handmade Gift

I originally wanted to post these for the Dare to DIY: Give Homemade challenge, but I didn’t want the recipients to see them before they received their gifts!

I saw a pin on Pinterest a while back for homemade fabric owls, and I thought they were cute as can be. So, with some major help from my mom, I decided to give them a go. We had some challenges figuring out how to create the pattern (the images from the original blog post were difficult to read), but after some trial, error, and image enlarging, we got them to be the size we wanted! We followed the rest of the blog tutorial to put them together.

    These guys look so much easier than sock dolls. Maybe this can be my introduction to making fabric animals. Yours look great!
