I made this little hooter with scraps from my mum's fabric collection, and the beak is a button from a friend's nana's button jar. I have vague recollections of the things mum made out of this fabric back in the early 80s... very vague though. I rediscovered this owl while trying to make a gift for C&R's baby boy, Benjamin David. My first attempt at a more boyish toy - a drop bear - turned out really scary (I was aiming for scary in a cute way, but I missed the cute!) so I'm having another go. Leave a comment if you have any ideas for a boyish toy I could make, and maybe I'll finish it before his first birthday :)
