The owl has landed.

A few weeks ago my beautiful daughter and I were shopping and we saw a cushion in the shape of an owl. Beth loves owls and really wanted the cushion but it was soooooo expensive I persuaded her we could make one instead. This weekend we sorted through our "bit-bag" and started work.
It wasn't easy teaching her to use the machine as she is somewhat heavy footed but eventually we produced this ......
..... She is absolutely thrilled with it and it now has pride of place on her bed.

I have also made a little progress on the table runner and I will photograph that later to show you.
Thanks for reading my blog today and welcome to my new followers.
Bye for now.

Very cute cushion. It's wonderful when you can make something beautiful for so much less than buying.
