***** OwL sWaP *****

i've been dying to blog about what i made for the owl swap organised by
MeridianAriel @ http://meridianariel.blogspot.com/
but i needed to wait until my swapee had received her parcel , it went to
Karalea @ http://karalea-karalea.blogspot.com/
in the USA
i'm always nervous when the swap is in transit
hoping it doesn't get lost or worse still that the swapee will be disappointed especially after seeing all the other fantastic owls being sent and received

but it got there safely and Karalea said
"I absolutely LOVE it" - phew!!

here is what i sent to Karalea

a felt brooch - a pair of owl eye buttons & a owly greetings card

unfortunately i took my photo's in a bit of a hurry and most of them came out blurry these were the best of the bunch
i'm glad i take so many photo's of each item!

here is another owl brooch which sold on Folksy yesterday

i'm really enjoying making these fat owl brooches and so i will be making some more for the shops
do you think the bright coloured ones or the natural coloured ones look best?
I can't decide!

I would have been totally excited to receive those VV. Lovely things. I really like your felt brooches.

I love the owls! I think the two different colours are equally nice - I'm biased a little more to the bright colours though!
