I Love this! I can’t wait to make an Owl Tree next year!
I want to make these…but her site is down! Do you have another copy of the pattern?
Her site was still up this morning. Perhaps it was just a temporary technical glitch? –Anne
I tried to pull up the felt owl ornament and was unable to do so. can you send to my email thanks
You should be able to just right-click on the link to the pattern (at Juicy Bits blog) and save it down to your computer. It’s a PDF file, which tend to be large. If you just click the link to open it in your browser, your browser may be timing out. Try downloading it to your computer before opening. If that doesn’t work, you may want to contact the designer for help. –Anne
Where is a good place to buy felt? I’ve been to Michael’s, Joann Fabrics, and Hobby Lobby but they don’t have an extensive collection of colors. I’ve looked at the American Felt and Craft website and they seem to have a good selection. But wanted to see if you have any other suggestions. Thanks!
Helaina, I get most of my felt from old blankets, so I don’t know offhand the name of a good source for purchasing. Perhaps another reader has some advice? –Anne
I was not able to download the owl pattern, can you send it by e-mail.
Thanks!!
I cannot send the file, but perhaps you could contact the person who created the pattern and they may be able to help you out. –Anne
I love the owls. I made one and it looked really cute. I called it squishy owl because it is quite squishy. I used red felt for the body, orange for the underneath eyes and the wings, white {obviously} for the eyes, green for the belly, dark green for the beack, brown beads for the middle of the eyes and I dry felted the patern on the belly. It looked realy great and best of all it’s hand made!
Thanks!
I Love these owls would to make some … I love the trees….
Love the owls can’t wait to make them
When you make these do you sew them right sides together or is it blanket stich only ?
Want the owl pattern Went to Juciy website – go access there either. Could you please email it to me?
Went to other website. No available pattern. Could you please email it to me?
Thanks for the pattern, my little daughter will love it.
Cool! 🙂
Thanks for the pattern! My daughter loves owls and I want to make her a set of ornaments!
Thanks for the great owl pattern. I used it @ with my high students, they loved making the owl.
Thanks for the pattern. I want to make a friend a bag for her birthday and she adores owls, this pattern is brilliant, I’ll be able to use the pattern as a motif and fancy it up with sequins. Thanks again.
Thank you so much for the pattern. Iam actually going to sew some on to a hot water bottle for my daughter. I have plans to make some for the tree too as all our decorations need to be two year old friendly for my son.
Your owl pattern is adorable, I plan to make it for my 32 yr-old son, he still requests a homemade ornament each year and I love that he does.
