I was browsing Etsy for embroidery patterns a couple of months ago and I found this little owl on a pile of books. A friend of mine has their birthday in August and I figured making a bookmark for someone who likes reading and writing is appropriate, right?
For one of the more colourful people I know, the original colours were just a bit too muted. So once I started planning the stitches, I went and picked some different colours for the books and edge. I attached some white felt to the back to hide all the stray stitches and some ribbon to the bottom for some extra length. I quite like the way it turned out and it was a fun little project.
