Slumbering Owl Applique Block
This weekend I designed our Slumbering Owl Applique Block. He was a hoot to make! (Sorry, that had to be said!) He is a little more complex than some of our other appliques because of the detail in the feathers. It's a little lost in the photo, but the layering of feathers really gives him a three dimensional look. If you don't want to invest the time appliquing the feathers on, you can always use the wavy lines used in our Owl Book Mark. Although I made this on a 6" x 6" felt block to use in my "haven't quite figured out what to do with them yet" project, I have an idea of another way to use our Slumbering Owl Applique, which I'll share later in the week. Enjoy! Get pattern here.

Applique pattern usage
Your patterns are adorable.
My 98 year old mother is making felt animals for homeless children. They are very simple, front and back pieces of felt with some detailing and a little stuffing inside.
Is it OK if she uses your animal designs, panda, owl, cardinal, etc for these needed toys.
Thank you.

Delete my comment and my request
Hi again.
I just stupidly asked if you'd make more winged animal appliques but I miscounted. I have enough. I missed the firefly and 3 stacked birdies earlier. I'm good. Can't wait to show you my quilt!
Hope you don't mind I left

Applique request - animals with wings
Hi.
Your appliques are the cutest in the entire world. Thanks for sharing all your fabulous ideas with us for free. You said we could make requests for more appliques.
I am making a quilt using your applique animals. I've decided I'd like to stick to animals with wings - but I need a couple more. I would make one myself but I'm sure yours would be cuter so I'm going to hope you'll help me out before I finish the ones I've started.
I think I need 3 more. Maybe a ladybug? Or dragonfly or damselfly? Or - what else is there?
Thanks!!!
You'll be the first to know when I finish. I'll send you a picture or link to my blog or write you a guest post or ANYTHING you want!
I'm so excited about this project. I wasn't in love with my quilt until I decided to use your appliques and now I am so in love.
Hoot Hoot
Just wanted to share with everyone ..... I used this cute owl pattern to cover the hole in my daughters pants. She was a hit at school. I used the eco-felt made from recycled plastic bottles. I'm not sure how it will last after many washings but I thought this was a great way to test it out. Thanks for sharing. I'm sure this is the beginning of a great crafting friendship.
very cute
Those jeans turned out so cute. What a great way to save a pair of jeans and personalize your daughter's wardrobe. Thanks for sharing!
Let us know how that eco-felt holds up.

Soooo Cute!
Thanks so much for sharing the pics. The owl is so cute but it really was awesome to embroider HOOT HOOT on the other leg of the jeans. Hope everyone takes a couple of minutes to check out her pics at our Flickr group. Thanks again for sharing. Always fun to see what others do with our designs!

Sucker for owls
I'm a sucker for anything with owls and this one is so cute. I absolutely love how you put the feathers on. Haven't seen that before. I promise this is going on something!
That owl is just the cutest
All of your projects are wonderful. But I have to say that the owl really made me smile. Love it!
Thank You!
A friend just shared your website and I'm hooked. Your projects are just beautiful. It's not like I need another craft site but yours has now moved up to the top of my list and I see a long and beautiful friendship! Thanks for all the time you must put into it. I certainly appreciate it. You rock!
