O Is For Owl

Design - "October - Monthly Markings"
Designer -  Heart in Hand
Fabric - 30 count mystery linen of some sort
Fibers - GAST & WDW - 2 strands over 2 threads
Started - 11 November 2013
Completed - 12 November 2013 

I messed with the pattern a bit to make the owl's eyes and face more symmetrical than charted.  I'm pleased it all worked out as I did it by freehand. First stitching the right eye, then positioning the "O", and finally balancing the left eye.

    Great finish. I haven't seen the original, but whatever adjustments you made look nice.

    What a great Owl design! I really like it! Is it for sale and if so, what is the price? I have a friend who loves owls and I would love to stitch this for her.
    Thanks so much!
