I cannot tell you how happy I am to finally make this beautiful owl blanket. It took a lot of work, and I mean a whole lot of work, but I loved every single minute of it!
This is going to be a gift for a friend's baby and I hope it will bring joy and happiness particularly with its vibrant and happy colors. Not to mention the owls. I.love.them.
My husband asked me if I could part from it - I said I will manage -with a heavy heart of course :)
I documented the process and now there is a tutorial in my shop if you want to make it. It is a lengthy and time consuming project, but believe me - this is a heirloom piece your loved ones will treasure forever.

I love this colorful blanket and especially the border! That border is so intricate and lacey!
Thank you so much!
Maya, this may be the sweetest blanket yet! Now you will have to visit your friends often just to say hello to it :-)

Oh my! It is beautiful. I can just imagine the time involved. Just making individual owls takes time and then to put it all together into a blanket. Wow! Definitely will be treasured. Best wishes, Tammy
Thsnk you Amalia! That's a good idea, or I might just make another one :)
Thank you Tammy! Indeed, it was a handful but totally worth it!
That is such a beautiful baby gift!! What a treasure, I can't believe you are parting with it! Beautiful work Maya.
Troppo bella, sei veramente bravissima!
Un abbraccio,

Thank you Billur!
I'm thinking of making this! So adorable! May I ask how long it took you to complete?
Thank you Erika :)
Given that I have a full time job, I worked in my free time and it took me about a week and a half.
