Thankful Owl Pillow


I can't believe it is November!  I made this cute owl pillow out of a dish towel from Joann's - 70% off!
I love the fall owls - but the fabric was canvas-like - not good for doing dishes.... better for a pillow!  I cut a piece of burlap and cut the word "Thankful" on the Cricut in vinyl.
 I removed the letters, leaving the background for the stencil.  Then I stenciled black paint & removed the vinyl when it was dry.
 I love stenciling on burlap!!  It is so fun & easy!
 I cut the dish towel into a 17" square (it will fit at 16" pillow form).  I top-stitched the burlap piece in place.  Then just sewed the pillow.  I added some trim in the seam.
