We’ve had some AWESOME feedback photos in July. Check out these highlights from the visitor’s posts on the<\/span> Funky Friends Factory Facebook Page<\/span><\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

So few soft toys get to visit the seashore \ud83d\ude01. What an exciting adventure for GB Bedford’s version of the<\/span> Ozzie Octopus soft toy pattern<\/span><\/strong><\/a>!<\/p>\n

Mary Stenger took her version of the<\/span> Nate Narwhal toy pattern<\/strong><\/span><\/a> on a nautical holiday, too!<\/span><\/p>\n

A couple of cool Igor Iguanas have gathered to sun themselves on the Facebook page. Jackie Hillman enlarged her version of the<\/span> Igor Iguana pattern<\/span><\/strong><\/a> 150 percent to make it nearly life-size!<\/span><\/p>\n

Sarah Miller traded out the felt spikes for fabric spikes in her sophisticated memory toy version of the<\/span> Igor Iguana pattern<\/span><\/strong><\/a>. LOOK how cool the shirt buttons look as reptile eyes!<\/span><\/p>\n

Karrol Mayfield says the<\/span> Larry Lion Pattern<\/span><\/strong><\/a> is her favorite to sew lovely keepsakes. You can tell by looking at this perfect plaid pride of lions!<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What a couple of cool cats! Louise Collins sat her version of the<\/span> Patch Pussycat pattern<\/span><\/strong><\/a> next to her real-life cat, Wooster, for a fun photo opportunity. I can’t tell if Wooster is happy about this or not\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n

This month’s second featured version of the<\/span> Patch Pussycat pattern<\/span><\/strong><\/a> definitely has a new best friend: Karrol Mayfield’s toddler is keeping her eye on this funky feline.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Aneva Niemand makes lots of\u00a0 soft toys for bushfire fundraising, in both quilting cotton and plush fabric styles. Here you can see both versions of the<\/span> Joey Junior kangaroo pattern<\/span><\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

CONGRATS goes to Sheila Ryan who wins a FREE Funky Friends Factory Pattern – of her choice!<\/span><\/h1>\n

Sheila has used Shannon Cuddle \u00ae fabric in her ALMOST real-looking version of the<\/span> Gertrude Guinea Pig soft toy pattern<\/span><\/strong><\/a>.<\/span> She took her new friend out in the garden for a photo shoot – what a relaxing way to spend an afternoon!<\/span><\/p>\n

Is it real or is it a Funky Friend?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
