    mrs m. I am inspired by your owl, so will put in on my to do list for later. Was it a pattern you draw up yourself, mr b is going to make a rough pattern for me as es cleaver that way.

    Rosie it's a pattern I got a couple of years ago with a magazine. It would be really easy to graph out the backs and fronts as the pieces were exactly the same and the features would be easy to draw out. I used felt for those.

    mrs -m, I'm an owl fan; yours are sooo cute!

    nimbo, I had my free gift from Hunkydory which I HAD to claim (it would be rude not to after all), so to make it worth the p&p (I know, that doesn't really make sense when something was free), I got 5 kits for £5 too and some card (out of the reduced price bit too, of course), so all in all I spent about £10 on things I didn't really need! I don't have that many people to make cards for and I don't sell them. Every so often I give a bunch away to charities and anyone who wants is welcome to have one - or more if they want. I just enjoy making them.
