Nice start!
You identified 4 out of the 5 story elements. Great problem! For the "plot" element, is there anything that happened before Owen's mother got the bright idea to cut up his blanket? That could be a "plot" or event that happened. Sort of like the "middle stuff" before the problem gets solved.

And welcome to the writing workshop!
