Owls, Owls, Owls!

I love this little owl pattern by Ana Paula Rimoli. You see, I have 2 degrees in accounting (BBA & MAcc) from Kennesaw State University whose mascot is Scrappy the owl. Ever since I got her book about a year ago, I knew I would be making a ton of these little owls for my fellow KSU friends and co-workers.

I worked at KSU as a Peer Advocate in the Career Services Center for part of undergrad and all of grad school helping students with resumes, job searching, and occasionally counseling the accounting students that would wander in on my shift. Since I am no longer enrolled in classes, I can no longer be on payroll so this was my last week at the CSC. Over the past year I have been slowly making owls to give to all my co-workers. People have come and gone, and the final count was 19 co-workers.

They absolutely loved the owls and many of them assured me their owls would be proudly displayed on their desks. I am sad to be leaving, but glad that I gave them something to remember me by. Now begins my 4 month vacation until I start my accounting job at KPMG in December - which I got through the KSU Career Services Center before I started working there :)
