Jia-Wen and his friend, Sihui, really loved the latest owl I sewed, so both of them decided they would try their hand at sewing an owl for each other!
Here’s the finished product:
We started the hands-on tutorial last night, after dinner, at 9.00pm.
We selected the cloth that would be used, then proceeded to cut out the pieces needed.
Here’s Jia-Wen using the sewing machine for the very first time in his life.
The eyes and beak are hand-sewn. Both are totally new at this – handling needle and thread and the sewing machine.
That’s done. Now, for the little feet.
Feet done. Next is to fill them up with kapok.
Look at the clock behind them. It’s taken them 2.5 hours to get here.
AND…we’re done, folks!!
Aren’t these the cutest ever?
Well done! Finished in 3 hours!
Sihui has contributed RM50 to the Fund for the blue owl, and Jia-Wen, another RM50, for the pink owl!
Couple owls – anyone interested? It’s part of our fundraising project.

So cute… both the couple and the owls 🙂
Well done!
The dad is looking at them thinking – sure or not? hehe ;p
What is the bank acc number? Will give these 2 owls a new home.
Hi Jennifer, these owls already have a home – not for sale anymore. But if you’d like to pair of couple owls, I can sew a new pair for you. They won’t be 100% identical as all our owls are handsewn, so each one is unique and special. They are sold at a minimum of RM50 each (by donation to our Fund for the animals). Thank you.
Sure.
Just pm the account number to me.
Hi Jennifer, Please do check your email, I’ve sent you the details. Thank you very much.

Possible to make them more fluffy coz the last owl I had, has become flat.
With these 2, the little owl has a family now. ☺☺
Will stuff the kapok to maximum then. By the way, after washing, best to sun dry on a hot day (we have plenty of those this season!) and fluff them up again. The kapok might get sticky after some time due to moisture.
If your owl looks flat, you could also open up the seams at the bottom (where the little feet are) and stuff it up more with cotton.
