Finished Toy Size: 12in/ 30cm Plattie is the first “Aussie Mates” Funky Friend. He is also one of the SIMPLEST Funky Friends patterns so I always recommend this pattern for beginner toy-makers and for children. He is suited to most fabrics but I like making him out of fleece which gives him a warm furry feel! With his cute little upturned bill and squidgy body, he’s bound to get loads of cuddles. RECOMMENDED FABRIC The Platypus can made from MOST fabrics – The pattern will work well with both NON-STRETCH fabrics (eg. patchwork and quilting cottons and corduroy)and also with STRETCH fabrics (eg. fleece, stretch velour, chenille and flannelette.)

Finished Size: 38cm / 15in. Ozzie Octopus has got to be the Funky Friend with the MOST LEGS EVER!! This pattern also looks very cute made up in girly colors, so make him a girlfriend too! RECOMMENDED FABRICS: Pre-washed and ironed 100% cotton fabric, and fibre fill toy stuffing is recommended for making this toy. The octopus can also be made in stretchy fabrics like fleece.

Finished Size: 36cm (14 inches) long & tall! I designed this cute patchwork pussy cat because Tula Pink asked me to! It's true! She wanted to make some cats for her booth at Quilt Market. I love cats and Tula Pink's fabrics so I said, 'SURE!' Patch has lots of pieces so this is NOT a good pattern for beginners but she is great for combining and showing off a range of gorgeous fabrics!

Finished Size: 8-1/2in tall and 14-1/2in long. An elephant with its trunk up is meant to symbolise good luck. This didn’t make sense to me because I’m originally from Africa where an elephant with its trunk UP means it’s about to charge and you’re outta luck! BUT let’s go with the positive! I wouldn’t recommend this pattern for beginners because the tusks and trunk are a little bit fiddly. Georgie will be a cute gift for anyone you feel could do with a little bit of luck in their life!

Finished Toy Size: 19in/48cm (standing), 10in/25cm (sitting).
