Default Owl softie

I am working on ideas for christmas gifts - found a blog where a woman made owl softies and gave them each their own personality by the outfit that the owl was wearing - for instance, the bookworm owl had glasses and was holding a small felt book, the princess owl was wearing pink - had a little ruffle tutu and a crown on her head. So I had my husband draft an owl pattern for me and I made my first softie yesterday - I think it would be cute for my nephew's baby and my grandson for Christmas - I like the idea of changing up the personality of the softie by the outfit and makes it very personal for the receiver. This is just a start - wanted to make the pattern first then work on embellishments. Lets see if I can get the pic to work.[ATTACH=CONFIG]376840[/ATTACH]

Too bad you didn't do these 2 years ago when 20 million people were watching Molly the Owl live on UStream! (I was a moderator in the chat room.) Let me know if you want to sell any of these, because I'm in touch with many people who are still crazy about owls. It's a darling concept!
