Show & Tell Time - Awesome Owl!

Today I want to share with you a letter I got from a customer - a letter that put a huge smile on my face. :-) And pictures! She sent pictures!

Just wanted to let you know that your owl pattern was a big success at our house. My six year old son made his owl on a Sunday morning. He loves it and takes it everywhere. He likes to change her expression by tucking the eye disks under the flap, or leaving them out (depending on the owl's mood).

We used some polar fleece for the eye disks. It's a little bit of an "upgrade" from the felt, and we were pleased with the results!

I love that she sent photos too! I especially love this focused face while he sews on the button eyes!

And - of course - this proud one of him with his finished owl. :-) And - get this - they're planning to scale down the pattern to make holiday ornaments for his school friends. What a brilliant idea!

I love, love, love seeing kids sewing! Thanks so much, Emily, for sharing!

Best,
Wendi
