Tutorial: Super cute owl softie, no sewing required

by

Natalie from Brimhall Bliss shows how to make an super cute owl softie that’s also easy to make.  The handstitching in the photo is all decorative. It’s made from felt and she uses glue to hold it all together, so no sewing is actually required.  You could easily use a sewing machine or handstitching in place of the glue if you wanted, though.  Get the tutorial.

  1. Yaaaay! Thank you so much for featuring this, I’m so happy you liked it! And yes, I made some monsters for my son instead of an owl, and since he’s a little rougher with his monster, I hand stitched everything instead of using glue. Maybe I’ll have to do a tutorial on that, too! 😉 Thanks again, I love this site! 🙂

  2. I’m just commenting on how cute it looks! I’ve got an owl themed room and was looking for some thing like this for a very long time… thanks!!!!

Easy Cosmetics Bag Sewing Pattern

The bag is simple, uses very little fabric (about 2/3rds of a fat quarter), has no fussy inside pockets (although you can add your own if you like), and takes me well less than 30 minutes to print the pattern, cut out and sew. But quick and simple doesn’t mean it’s not awesome!

It’s the sort of bag that is versatile enough to be used for lots of applications, not just cosmetics and toiletries. Keep all your pens and pencils in order, use it for a small first aid kit for the car, keep it in your desk at work for a few headache pills and other personal supplies.

Make some for yourself, for gifts or to sell.
