Yep that's right I am Rawr 'ing!
Not only did I complete 8 owl softies in 3 days but tonight I made a kick butt pillow in 2 hours!
An accomplishment all on it's own because my terror 6 month old usually won't let me sew for any stretch of time. We had some night terrors so far tonight but nothing that a little pat on the butt couldn't solve.
Want to see what I have been up to? OF COURSE YOU DO!!!
{like you had any choice}

This pillow was inspired by a tutorial for a freezer paper stenciled version @ Ucreate {one of my favorite blogs to stalk read!}... Written by Running with Scissors. {Another good blog} You can see the tutorial here.
I used a ribbon as the embellishment and I used some fabric that I had left over from a Christmas gift I am making. I than used heat bond to hold the fabric and cut the birdie out using the template provided by the tutorial...Finally stitched all around the appliqué for added strength!
This pillow is actually a case with a opening in the back so it can be washed etc!

I am going to be doing a Arts & Crafts festival called the Sum Nelly festival, in my town come October with any luck... My friend, Emily, from Paperpixiecrafts and I are going together to share a booth! I can't wait!
So I am going to try and not disappear but I might!

I am also going to try and start doing ONE tutorial every two weeks (every week preferred but I will only promise every two weeks).... Would this be something you guys would look forward to?

I was also thinking about doing a sew along... Maybe with a new owl design I am working on... It would be a smallish pillow owl...Anyone interested?
Enjoy your day folks!
Don't forget you can visit my store at RyBug!
The owls will be listed by tomorrow morning!
Linking to some of these parties...
