I am sooooooooooooooooo excited about this cute little critter who has arrived JUST in time for Christmas!
Meet Preston
the Polar Bear!
He’s a chubby little fellow who feels the cold so I have wrapped him up nice and cosy with a bright Christmassy red scarf. He is just desperate for some hugs. He loves little children, he just couldn’t eat a WHOLE one! (Well, he’s still little and completely harmless!)
Preston can be made from Fleece, of any type, stretch fabrics eg. velour, chenille and flannelette, for the body. Any fabric scraps, including quilting scraps or corduroy for the ear and tail highlights.
The Preston Polar Bear Stuffed Toy Pattern is available now, from the Funky Friends Factory website. Hope you like him!

Happy sewing,

Pauline, your Preston is adorable…..I would not change one thing on him.
I think his tubbiness makes him even more adorable….. after all, lets face it, after Christmas he goes into hibernation so he must have enough to eat prior to that!
Seriously Pauline, you have got another winner here, and IF anyone thinks he is too fat, it is easily fixed by sewing in his tummy and back seams.Have you had any more feed back on Preston as yet?
I am going to put the midday movie on and finish off my Preston and then I when then send you a photo.
So bye for now.
Love Shirls
Thanks Shirley! : ) I was a bit nervous about this chubby little fellow! I can’t believe you whipped him up so quickly. Thanks for sending your photos through – he’s turned out so cute!
