Love that little owl! I agree with alien quilter. Add the insulation layer after turning. OR leave a bigger opening and just top stitch the entire edge. Then you won't see the opening at all.

Stay stitch the fabric where the opening will be before you sew them together. Who said birth was easy? Love the owl.

That is so cute but I think I would put the opening at the bottom of the pot holder.

I think it looks GREAT! Like where the final seam is - wouldn't change it for any other place.

Nan

Your owl is so cute!

He sure is cute! Lots of good suggestions for you but it looks like you're doing great on your own!

What is the name of the pattern? Is it in a book or separate? Would love to get one. Thanks.

The pattern is called Hot Who Owl and someone on ebay has some for sale and also on Etsy there is maybe one. He sure is cute!!! I also an a bit of an owl freak. Have always been fascinated by them.

When I turn pot holders I trim the batting and insulbrite smaller, then barely catch them when top-stitching after the turn. Very cute Owl!!

Oh my.. Where did you find the pattern? I have a friend who LOVES owls... Need to make this one!
