Hello, hello!
The blog is moved and it is slowly coming together.
I still have some work to do around here, but in the meantime, I have a sweet, simple little felt craft to share with you: A Felt Owl Pouch.
That’s right, I might have a brand new blog, but I still love felt!
And, isn’t this little owl pouch adorable?
Aren’t you just dying to make one? I know you are!
And, guess what, I’ve made it really easy for you.
I made a template.
And, here we go!
How To Make A Felt Owl Pouch
Supplies:
- Template
- Wool Felt (shades of orange and teal)
- Embroidery Thread
Once you have the piece cut out (using the template) you just have some stitching to do.
Refer to the picture above for the order in which things need to be stitched.
1. Take the smaller owl piece and stitch on the eyes, and feathers (you only need to stitch the inside side of the wings at this step). Add the black eye details.
2. Then, with teal thread stitch the smaller owl shape onto one of the larger owl shapes with a backstitch.
3. Add the other larger owl shape to the back and one again using a backstitch, stitch around the outside, excluding the very top edge.
And that, my friends, is all there is to it!
Trust me, your spare change never looked so cute until it was in this owl pouch!
Finally, because this is a fairly simple craft I thought I’d add a sweet picture of my little baby girl.
She’s already 10 months!
What?
Isn’t she the sweetest?
She’s waving goodbye! Thanks for being here!

I’m going to make two of these cute little purses for both of my Granddaughters. They will love them! By the way, your little girl is as adorable as can be!
I’m so happy to hear that! Happy stitching!
Since Facebook is notorious for not letting page owners know when I tag them, I thought I would stop by myself and let you know I featured this post and my readers loved it! https://www.facebook.com/CraftsbyAmanda/photos/pb.323548680216.-2207520000.1397173018./10154024022325217/?type=3&theater
thank you for letting me know…and thanks for the feature! I was wondering where the FB traffic was coming from…certainly not from my fan page! HA!
This is so adorable Nancy!

Love the Owl ! AND, your daughter is precious !!! Enjoy her as she will grow up so fast. I hardly remember my kids or grandkids ever being that small.
So true! She is already grown so much since I took that picture!
Your style is really unique in comparison to other people I’ve read stuff from.
Thanks for posting when you have the opportunity, Guess I’ll just book mark this blog.
This owl is adorable and so is the little one. The pouch would be a great place to put a tooth for the Tooth Fairy.
Thanks for the template…the owl is adorable, as is your wee one!
Super cute owl! I downloaded the template!

I thought she was telling a story and needed her hands to illustrate.
