    Owls can be bright orange, right? The Spotted Clementine, or something. :)

    This took me several attempts to make, so it's not too bad for a beginner haha. I did not add any eyes or beak, so i drew them in using photoshop. Once I can get wool and do it, I will post up the proper photo : )

    Love it! I think little dotty eyes like your photoshop ones look super-cute. Maybe you should use some little beads?

    I turned the key ring into a pin cushion. Love this cute little owl!
