One of my dear friends has just had a baby. Instead of buying a gift I decided to make a toy felt owl, one side is a night owl, the other a day owl. The embroidery used for the open eyes is satin stitch and stem stitch for the closed eyes. I'm really happy with the result, not bad for an hours work and really easy to do. I've managed to save myself some cash and make a great gift with a personal touch. I've included 'how to make' step-by-step photos below.

| My children love this automaton musical bird in his little wooden cage. I've seen them on various websites for between £10-£15, a bargain for such a lovely toy. |
