Owl For Cheap

I have a 19 month old great niece. 

 She is about to become a big sister.

(I am not sure she will be very excited about that initially)

Same little sweetie has been dragging around a large fleece blanket.

It is snowmen.

(It is grungy)

I am making her new baby a quilt.

(She may be jealous)

 I appliqued this owl on a fleece blanket for the big sister. 

If she doesn't like it.

I know a little boy who does.

I found the pattern in this Quilts and More magazine.

I bought the new fleece blanket half off at the Goodwill.

I used flannel and Minkee scraps for the owl and the moon.

(She doesn't need to know her new owl blanket only cost $1.50)
