Graduation Owl Assembly Line Tips
Welcome to washcloth crafts!
The
Graduation
Owl was the first critter I ever designed over 20 years ago for my
boys’
kindergarten classes. Of course, the owl can be used for any age group,
especially if you roll up a little cash to tuck inside the tummy. Other
treats can be a
candy kiss or a plastic toy or a promise note for dinner and a movie
or other activities which can also be a special surprise for the
graduate.
A little Velcro on each side of the owl's body will help to keep the opening closed to prevent anything valuable from falling out. The owl doesn’t necessarily require any sewing, unless you want to sew up the front and back of the body and even that is optional. Also, you can use googly eyes for large, round eyes.

As
noted in the Owl Tips, if you are making them for a whole classroom,
start early cutting out the various parts little by little, and then
assemble the owls
all at once. (See the link at the very top of the page to get the
tips.) Make some extra owls for siblings and friends, if you have
extra washcloths. Remember,
kids like a variety of colors, especially if you can’t find tan cloths,
although Wal-Mart almost always has tan cloths. Look for packages of 9 for $3.60 a pack near the dishtowels.
Happy Crafting!
