Hello, friends especially needleworkers and DIYers!

Project Time: approximately 2.5 hours
Difficulty: easy
Skills needed:
- Whipped stitch
- Back stitch

Materials and Things needed:
- Felt fabrics in purple, medium brown, red and white
- Scissors, I used two kind of it, a medium size one was paper scissors and a smaller one was craft scissors
- Needle
- Embroidery floss in black, brown, red, white, purple, and yellow
- Polyester fiber filling (Dacron)

1ST
What I started to do first was cutting all the felt fabrics I had. First I cut the purple for the body (front and back part), medium brown for the wing, red for a small heard and white for the face.
2ND
Next I cut off the brown for the back (to add on the pin) then all the parts of the cute owl were finished. I then whipped stitch the brown to the back like below.
3RD
After that I back stitched the eye with double strands of the black floss. The eyes were closed. Then I embroidered the beak like below. For this beak I used four strands of the yellow floss. After finished, I put it on the front body part with double strands of white floss, also with the whipped stitch.

Next I continued by embroidered the v for the wing with double strands of the brown floss. Then I also whipped stitch it to the body, I did the same to the red heart, I also joined it unto the body with the whipped stitch.
5TH
Last I would like to close all with the blanket stitch, first I did to the wing part with the brown floss. Then I did the same with the purple floss. I also didn’t forget to put some Dacron filling before I closed it all. I also added the pin on the back..
