Jennifer Jangles – jolly cute fabric for softies!

Jul 10, 2015 | A day in my life, Blog

If you know me, you’ll know I LOVE colour (LOTS of it) and I am sure you can just imagine how much I love the awesomely bright and colourful fabric designs from Jennifer Heynan a.k.a Jennifer Jangles!

LOTS & LOTS!!!!!

Jennifer’s latest range of fabric is called Bugapalooza – what a cool name! It’s a bright and cheerful combination of checks, dots, flowers…

and

BUGS!

Bugapalooza Jennifer Heynan (Jennifer Jangles)

I think these fabrics would be very cute for a whole range of soft toy bugs. I can picture all sorts of new Funky Friends Factory bug patterns – a grasshopper, a caterpillar and butterfly perhaps, maybe a wasp or dragon-fly? Even a spider wouldn’t be too scary in such fun fabric!!!

What bug pattern do YOU think would be really cool in these fabrics?

    There are SOOO many of your fabulous patterns that would look awesome in that fabric! I can mention a few, Plattie Platypus, Diggles the Dragon, Dilby Duck, Igor Iguana, Kiki Koala would look awesome in some of those, Larry Lion, Punju Peacock would look sooooooo awesome in any of those cool fabrics! In fact, I think that all of your patterns would look cute in those!

    I’d be a ‘rolly polly’. At least that’s what Harlan calls them. And I would want to be one because she loves them so much!!!

    I have always liked lightening bugs (also known as fireflies). They’d look so cute with their yellow bellies! Lightening bugs are so much fun in the heat of the summer!
