I need more material to put great colors into the grand’s life. Thank you for getting me into these projects. I am actually becoming a person who is sewing daily. Love the color

Anyway, thanks for the contest and good luck to all!

I think Sue Squirrel would look super cute in these fabrics!

Bulldog pattern. I can envision his fabrics with the adorable face bold and fun.
I think Patch Pussy Cat would look great in one or more of these fabrics. I don’t usually purchase bright colors like this but I can see some of them in my future
I am in Illinois and am thrilled that your patterns are available in the USA. I have made many in fun critter from your patterns. I sew them up for charity. I hope to win the Donkey pattern and some fun Alphonso fabric to bring him to life.
I would love to make the highland cow. He is so cute and would look fantastic in these fabrics!

I am totally addicted to funky friends factory patterns. They’re always adorable easy to make and everyone to give them to just fall in love with them thank you so much for all your creativity.
I love all the circles and dots in his line of fabric and would love to see them In iguana. So beautiful
I think the Sea Turtle or Alex Axolotl would be perfect for any of those prints! Oh, what fun I could have!
Slowpoke the Sloth would be a lot of fun.
The materials look fantastic and I would love to sew one of you great patterns using one.
Actually, there too many to choose, but my headliners are: Hannah Hedgehog, Heather Hippo, LLoyd LLama and friend, Nate the Narwhal, and Piggy Clothes Peg bag.
I’d like to make Kip the keepsake dog with some of the fabric. It’s quite hard to pick which one as they are all so bright and colourful, I love them all x

Sorry didn’t do it with my other post
I think your PARTY ANIMAL would be great in a combination of Alfonso’s Polka Dots for the head and Chevron for the body (hands and feet still blue fleece).
I think Afonso’s Floral Macy’s fabric would be great with the hippo!
OMG, Pauline! I couldn’t agree with you more on how awesome the Floral Print Tricoline fabric would be great for your Raff the Giraffe pattern. That being said, just about ANY of your patterns would look good done up in Alfonso’s fabric.
I have wanted to do a FLAMINGO…how fun would it be in the New Age Stripe?
Added to my stories on Instagram…don’t know how to get the url…sorry! I’m Luanneknits
I’d love to see Digger & Dixie Dachshund in these gorgeous fabrics!
I would the toten terecotta fabric. They are all so beautiful, it is difficult to pick!
I would love to make a dachshund in any one of these beautiful fabrics! My daughter just gave me a real dachshund that I love dearly and I collect dachshunds of all kinds so this would be a wonderful sewing project to add to my collections! I have made several memory bears for friends!
Would definitely make the tiger in the stripey one. How much fun those fabrics are.
I’d love to try the Melody Bear in Polka Dots Prime 🙂

I think the unicorn would work great.
The fabrics are stunning as are your patterns.
I would love to make Ollie the laid back owl.
Thanks for sharing.
I would love to make Ellie Elephant in one of Afonso’s beautiful fabrics!
Silly Scrap Snake would easily slither into anyone’s heart if made in Afonso’s New Age Stripe. Don’t you think?
I don’t ever see anyone make the kiwi bird or the toucan. I think either one of those would look fabulous in these fabrics.
Oh My, these new fabric are absolutely gorgeous. I can’t just pick out one, I can see many Ben the Bear and Kips being made as stand out Plushies’
I would love to see Belinda butterfly is some of the prints.
Being a Tigers fan it would have to be the tiger for me, really love this range of fabric
I think the elves pattern would look great with these fabrics especially Xmas fabrics
Mickey Moose in Floral Macy’s 😍
The floral and a few others would make a great chameleon
I think all of the fabric would look good on any of the funky friends patterns. Great fabrics and great patterns.
Wowser, you sure make decision making difficult! All of these fabrics are so beautiful and vibrant. I have so many of your patterns already that would look wonderful in these designs, but I think Belinda the Butterfly is a shoo in for these remarkable prints.
