8 1/2 inches across and roughly 7 inches tall (height can be adjusted as you make it)

Difficulty

Super easy! I designed this Orville the Owl softie pattern for a Harry Potter Camp I taught. I needed to be able to make it with 20 kids - most of whom had never used a sewing machine before. They did a fabulous job! Every kid made an owl he or she loved! It's so easy my daughter (age 8) made the blue one you see on the cover. :-) Now you can make one too! This is a great first pattern to try if you want to get started making softies.

What You Need+-

You'll Need. . .

  • scraps of fabric for owl front and back ­ - if you use fat quarters you'll have leftovers
  • scraps of felt for eye circles
  • buttons for eyes ­ - I used 7/8" buttons but you could go bigger or smaller. Use what you have!
  • scrap of felt for beak (optional)
  • polyester fiberfill stuffing

Lots of Fun

Wendi, your directions were perfect for my granddaughter’s first sewing project. Emily was very proud of her finished owl, Hootie Hoot.
