Let me introduce you to Harriet.
I made Harriet after work today. Harriet is my first experiment with:
A) making a softie from repurposed fabric...well not 100% repurposed. Her body was once a sparkly tweed skirt but her felt eyes and beak and the blue polka dot fabric are all new.
B) Harriet is also my first try at making up my own pattern...did you notice my lovely sketches at her feet? (you got me, she doesn't have feet...). I even traced out all of the 'pattern pieces' so that I can repeat/tweak her pattern. Yeah me!
I'm not totally pleased with all her seams...
And some of the tweedy bits were fraying when I turned her right side out (which I tried to patch the best that I could)...
But all in all, I am quite pleased with how she turned out.
Isn't she a sweet little owl?
