Did you know the MAKER OF THE MONTH wins a FREE Funky Friends Factory Pattern?<\/span><\/h1>\n

Check out these highlights from the September visitor’s posts on the<\/span> Funky Friends Factory Facebook Page<\/span><\/strong><\/a>!<\/p>\n

First up we have Jackie Hillman with an armful of sloths! She enlarged the<\/span> Slowpoke Sloth Pattern<\/span><\/strong><\/a> to 130 percent for the “mommy” sloth and made the “baby” at the normal size. I have a blog post about<\/span> how to resize a pattern here<\/span><\/strong> if you want to try this yourself! \ud83d\ude42<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0\"Sloth<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Caroline de Groote used the free unicorn add-on for the<\/span> Calico Bear Pattern<\/strong><\/span><\/a> to make this magical bit of pastel keepsake perfection. It’s still magical for me to see pre-loved baby clothes turn into a super-cute keepsake toy!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Some MORE recycled baby clothes! Alana Simons made these cute memory toy foxes using the<\/span> Fifi Fox Pattern<\/strong><\/span><\/a>.\u00a0 I’ve included her ‘before’ and ‘after’ photos for you to see the transformation! \ud83d\ude00<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Wow! Don’t you LOVE the 1980s throwback geometric fabric and bold colors on this version of the<\/span> Puppy Pattern<\/strong><\/span><\/a> sewn by Debbie Arkwright?\u00a0 She made this beautiful, bright Puppy Pete for a six year old’s birthday. I think this Puppy Pete would make a lot of adults happy, too!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

<\/h1>\n

I laughed when I read Rebecca’s post about these 2 identical versions of the Gertrude<\/span> Guinea Pig Sewing Pattern<\/strong><\/span><\/a>. BUT I agree – you should always sew 2 guinea pigs at a time as they are so cute!!!! \ud83d\ude00<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Guinea<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This giraffe’s extra large craft eyes give him a cuddly baby face. Laurie Danielson-Skipper also used hand-cut spots on the<\/span> Giraffe Toy Pattern<\/strong><\/span><\/a> as a gift for her grandchild.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Giraffe<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I REALLY couldn’t choose a winner so I did a random draw and the winner is…<\/span><\/h1>\n

Ta dah\u2026 Jenn Michelle and her cute & cuddly cubs made from the<\/span> Keep Me Keepsake Bear Pattern<\/strong><\/span><\/a> for a new set of identical twins. Jenn added monogrammed birth details to the footpads\u2026 which is exactly why I designed them with extra space!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

CONGRATS Jenn! You win
