Let's make your owl pattern.
First tape two 8.5" x 11" piece of computer paper together side by side.
|
 |
Trace a dinner plate.
This will be the base of the owl body. |
 |
Now at the top trace a tea-cup
saucer plate as shown in the photo. |
 |
Now draw the eyes, nose, feet,
and wings. There, now you have your
owl pattern to work with. |
 |
Now that you have your
pattern, you can begin cutting out your pieces.
| |
| You will need: |
| 2 owl bodies |
| 2 wings |
| 2 feet |
| 2 outer eyes, and 2
center eyes |
| 1 nose |
| 1 heart |
|
 |
Once your pieces are cut out,
pin them to the pretty side of ONE of the owl body pieces. |
 |
Zigzag appliqué the wings,
eyes, and feet on first. Either use a
heat bond for the smaller pieces like the eye center, heart, and nose, or
zigzag them on next. |
 |
Place your owl bodies pretty
sides together and pin around the outer edge. Stitch around the
owl using the pressure
foot as your guide. Leave a 4" opening.
(Don't forget to leave your opening.) |
 |
Trim seams, turn owl pretty
side out. Stuff the owl with fiber-fill or stuffing. Hand stitch the opening closed. |
 |
Your LOVE Owl is finished!
Happy Sewing!
