Making an owl applique

Making an owl applique
  1. First I cut out an owl shape from a vintage men’s wool coat.
  2. Next I cut felt for the face and tummy.
  3. Now add the wings and eyelids.
  4. Lashes and eyes. 
  5. Don’t forget the buttons and a beak.
  6. VOILA… You’ve got yourself a cute little owl applique for a pillow or purse.
  7. Now just start stitching!

  1. You make it seem so easy! Next time make the pictures smaller. I have a pretty big screen and they fill the whole thing up so I can’t read the caption/instructions. The site looks great.
