Over the years I seem to have designed and stitched a few Owls.

Gordon's Owl
This is a modern design based on Raised Elizabethan embroidery. Pockets of Needle Lace are stitched directly onto the fabric and then padded to produce raised stitched areas. Metallic thread and beads add texture and appeal to the design. The Owl’s body is padded Needle Lace with fluffy stitching around the eyes. The Moths have Needle Lace wings with fluffy stitched bodies. The leaves and flower trumpets are padded with a covering of woven stitching. The flower petals and bugs are padded Needle Lace. Gold beads decorate the background. The design is 17 x 14 cms (6 1/2 x 5 1/2 inches) in size.  To purchase this design click here

Fabric
Ornament. Height size:19cm (71/2 ”) This adorable Owl is made from cotton fabric with the body and wings embellished with hand stitching. The Owl stands on its own firm base.
