Free pattern: Owl macaron coin purse

I am positively squeal-y over this owl macaron coin purse. Is it not the cutest thing ever! Look at his owl eyes and those furry eyebrows! Joanne from Craft Passion shares a free pattern for making one. It’s not a quick project but the end result is sooo worth the effort. You’ll need a special pear shaped coin purse form, but it’s not expensive and she has a link in her post where you can buy them.
