Sew an owl box...

I attempted a box a few weeks ago - a slightly bigger one than my other ones and made it of 2 layers of felt for sturdiness...needless to say it didn't work! See:

A tad floppy!

Sew, I ripped it up, cut it out again, made it a tad smaller, added sew in interlining aaaand hey presto a box thats stands up!

twit twoo!!

p.s. much prefer the handstitched blanket stitch edging than the machining. Took a bit longer but was good to do while listening to the new Franz album :)

  1. So cute! Hand stitched blanket stitch stands out so much more.
