What a Hoot!

I am officially hoping on the crafting owl's bandwagon. I see pictures of adorable hand made owls everywhere, and I thought my sister would enjoy a nice owl creation for her birthday, so I gave it a try!


I made an owl coin purse and a cute stuffie owl that matches her bed! (Its really handy when you have also made someones bed quilt and you have left over scraps!) This was a first try, so I'm not really sure how great my owl skills are, but thankfully sisters will love you even if you give them slightly off looking owl gifts :):)

Here are my little  attempts

 I feel like the stuffed owl is giving me the stare down, but I do like his colours.


What a Hoot! ;)
I'm always nervous my homemade gifts will be something like a kid giving there mom a macaroni necklace for mothers day! It seemed as though Julia was excited though, hope so! :)

Also, to get the gift, my sister came to Guelph to hang out, and here are some lovely pics that came of our afternoon together.

work it!

Haters gonna hate.
