The girls are so excited for Christmas. I was going to make them wait to play with these until Christmas morning but it's hard to be sneaky when they know I'm sewing stuff up. These darling owls were made from this Snuggly Owls tutorial created by Ashley from Make-It and Love-It. So fun and easy! I made my owls all with fleece I had on hand, their fluffy front feathers are inspired by Target's Circo owl pillow. They have so much fun texture!
To make the front loops as well as the wing strip texture, I cut strips of fleece 3/4" wide. Since fleece doesn't fray there's no need to finish any edges. With the loops I simply pinned up each row of loops then sewed them down. The wing strips are really simple, just line them up straight, pin, and sew a line down the center. I added my textures before sewing the pieces onto the owl. Enjoy and I hope you're all having a Happy Christmas Eve!

Aren't these just too stinkin' cute. I'm sure your girls love them. Merry Christmas.
It's been so long since I've popped in on your blog - I've missed your creative goodness ;-) I'm especially glad I stopped by today so I could see this post - my Brailee is so into owls and I was going to make her one using my fleece scraps but just make it up as I went - this should be even better. Thanks for sharing!
BTW - your girls are getting SO big!
They turned out awesome!
Great job on your pillows! We have the target one and it was the first thing that came to mind when I saw the make it love it tutorial. Wish we had waited so I could make my own! you did an awesome job!
