Merlin the Midnight Owl
Merlin the Midnight Owl
Price: $16.00

    Quantity:

    Merlin will be released to shops the week of October 7th. We expect to receive our shipment around October 11th. 

    At midnight, under a silvery moon, Merlin opens his starry eyes and starts to speak. Our newest owl has a flat seamed bottom and wire feet that help him perch on any flat surface.

    Model was stitched on 32 CT Weeks Tin Roof Linen and we are recommending Zweigart Belfast Platinum. Threads used are a combination of DMC and Weeks overdyed floss, plus accents of silver Metallic #4 braid. His sequin eyes are purple and silver with black beads in the center. On his back is a delightful Owl Head Bead with matching purple eyes. Pin a little hat on his head made from a dark purple bead with a fancy silver sequin brim.

    Fun to stitch, easy to finish!

    We are open Tue-Sat 11am-3pm PT for orders, pickup and appointments. We are not able to accept Expedited orders at the present time. Many of our vendors are still taking longer to supply us due to increased demand and supply chain issues. If you only want items we have in stock, please mark your order Ship Partial Cancel Incomplete Items. While we would love to be able to give firm ETAs for items we are out of, that's not possible with the disruption COVID-19 continues to cause across the supply chain.

    We hope that everyone stays safe and we truly appreciate your support.



    Russian customers: We are unable to accept orders being sent to Russia or using a payment method with that as the country of origin due to sanctions.

    EU & UK customers: We are no longer shipping orders less than £135 (~$170USD) to the UK or €150 (~$165USD) to the EU due to VAT requirements imposed by the EU & UK governments. If you are in the EU or UK and you order is over £135/€150, we can send it an you will be responsible for VAT when it is delivered. For orders under that amount, we would suggest having us send it to a Freight Forwarder in the US, which can then handle the requiste paperwork for VAT. We hope the UK & EU governments will adjust the rules to limit its scope to large scale businesses, but we're not confident that will happen.
