Love this little guy. Chloe has been making very similar owls for a couple of years now, but she roughly hand stitches them from vintage materials and stuffs them with stuffing plus a bit of lavender. Terrific little gifts for friend's birthdays or just out of love. :)
This is Aldred, cousin to Alice.
You saw Alice last week as part of the CAL at Meme Rose.
I stuffed Al with a pillow form -- soft and cuddly.
Finding the right name for him really didn't take too long.
When I discovered that Aldred meant old, wise counsel I knew I had the right name.
Perfect for an Owl.
I'm using Al's eyes as the circle prompt for August Break.

Aw this is so cute! I love owls, and didn't know that about the name Aldred. And you are right, it is the perfect name.
