Roar means “I love you in dinosaur!” Which is one of our favorite funky friends, but these little monsters are simply too cute. We will have to whip some up for some gifts for our distance learning friends!

Every pattern is adorable and every animal I make and give away is so loved. I like to weight and slightly stuff Ellie the Elephant. She has to be my favorite to sew. I would love to win the moose pattern as we live in the mountains and I believe it would be so fun for every holiday fabric. I sew all my funky friends up in minky fabrics. They are so soft and adorable.
I would love the moose or dachshund! Both are quite adorable.
orisgreat@gmail.com

Ellie Elephant plus all the others 🤣
I just love sewing the animal patterns! I especially love it when I get to see a kiddos face light up when they realize they have a one of a kind stuffy made just for them😃
The Love Monster is cute✨ but I especially like Ellie the elephant 🐘

I love your patterns. Each one is so adorable.
You have so many cute patterns it’s hard to decide, but I think I would like the fox pattern. Thanks for your creativity!!
I do like them all , but probably the Honey Bear because I am a true Teddy Bear Collector, and I think if I used a little less stuffing on this Bear , so it would be a little more, floppy and moves easier,, and not so tightly stuffed! The bears face has to have some character to it , so I can make it very unique and, make it one fantastic more lovable Bear !!!
I’d love a monster pattern buts been so hard to choose as all are brilliant
I would just love to win a bear. Patern please. I would be making a memory bear with something I have of my mums.
I would like to make a monster, I never thought about making him a hug monster.
Ooh, I love your patterns but it’s so fun seeing how different fabric choices and combos affect the finished toys too! I think those choices make ever toy so unique. Being Canadian but living abroad I’d love to make the moose – just fabulous! Thanks.
All of the plushies are sooo cute with Valentines fabric!
Hi, I would really like to make the Patch Kitty Cat please x
These are all so cute! I’d love to sew up a hippo for my sister!
So generous! For Valentine’s Day I would love to make either Melody Memory Bear or Patch Pussy Cat
I am a big Guinea Pig fan, I would love the Guinea Pig pattern to make for my granddaughters in replica of their piggies.
I would love to make a trunk up, lucky elephant out of wonderful colourful brocade fabric. It would be a combination of Valentine’s and Happy Chinese New Year expression of best wishes and love. Also, since it’s the year of the Ox, a bull/ox in a lovely heart pattern would be wonderful too. ♥♥♥

I love the patterns! For years I made bears for family members for holidays. Yout patterns are so cute, and I can expand my collection of ‘stuffed’ friends! Thanks for the chance to win!

I would love to sew the lion, or Pete the puppy!

Hi Pauline. I think Randy Rhino would make quite a handsome Valentine.
My granddaughter would love to see Love Monster pattern
I would love to sew Ellie Elephant! I had a stuffed elephant as a toy as a child! I still have mine, but its missing an ear which was made of a plastic type material. He was fashioned from a soft type of corduroy material. Would love to give as a gift to our friends new grandson. He was born with hydrops fetalis. It is a rare condition in which only about 20% live. He is a week old now and still fighting!
Ohhh..the pictures posted have inspired me to dig through my stash and find Valentine fabrics to use when I make my next Funky Friend. Now…which friend will it be?
I just joined your group and started making your “Funky Friends” in the last month. I love all of the stuffed toys that I have seen:) I would like to win the snake pattern.
Wow! To win a pattern would be 🤯🤯🤯I really enjoy creating these plushies, I’ve already bought quite a few! And to add another would be just AWESOME!

A moose! I would love a moose. I could make plaid mooses!
I would love to sew a red panda pattern!
I would love to sew Joey Junior Kangaroo for Valentine’s day. Joey has been on my want list for quite some time now so I can recreate(almost) a beloved toy from my childhood. Jake the puppy will be next after Joey.
I really love Fifi Fox and the Easter Bunny Buddies All the Funky Friends patterns are amazing, it’s so hard to choose!
I’d make an elephant as a valentine’s cuddly. I love elephants, always have, and elephants never forget x
I love all of your patterns so this is a tough choice but I think my favourite of the ones I don’t already have would be the T-Rex.
I made the bear with the buttons for moveable arms and legs… he was loved … I would love the dachshund dog .. xx thanks
I am in the process of sewing pete the dog with a mix of mine and the hubby’s clothes that we had on our first date. Nicknaming him puppy love. And will be our valentine’s day gift.
I love all the patterns! I really like the moose. My daughter and I visited Alaska several years ago and the moose was very relevant then. I would love to make one for her!
Oh I’d love to sew either Fifi the Fox or Crocodile Steve! I have many of your patterns already & love them ❤️ Thank you for this awesome opportunity.
Pauline, Hi!
I just wanted to say thank you for the free tutorial on making these little critters. I have been sewing for decades and really have just started sewing toys, so I found the information very helpful, and the added videos were extremely helpful as well. What I love about sewing is that no matter how much you know you can always learn more. It is great when folks share their knowledge, it makes everyone feel more connected, something we all really need right now. Thanks again!
Ahh so cute. I’m starting my first one so may change the melody nose to a heart shape!!
My friend is about to have a rainbow baby and she loves lambs!
I’d be so happy to win and make her a baby lamb! (I already have the perfect fabric too)
OMG I have just seen Heather the Hedgehog!! I’m known as the Hedgehog Lady because I rescue wildies and I have a pygmy called Dumbledore…..and my name is Heather!! I can’t believe it! That is the adorable pattern I would have to make!!
I love these cute Valentine’s toy ideas! My mom sewed dresses for tiny teddy bears for us one Valentine’s day, and they are still my very favorite present all these years later.
That is so lovely! I would love to sew the goose. I keep coming back to that one since my husbands favorite animal are gooses. Would also make a heart pillow on which my goose could stand on.
Melody bear is really nice pattern for valentine’s ;he could hold a heart or just make him with some “hearty” fabric..
Or maybe T-Rex, just to be a little different and have an egde..
I think the duckling would be adorable in valentine’s day print!
I would like to make Honey Bear. I enjoy all your patterns.
Keep me keepsake bear, love the example posted above. Would love to try machine embroidery on those yummy little foot pads and tummy!!! I have 8 grands that would love this cute bear!!!
I love all of the critters!!
I think that the love monster is too cute! I would like to make and send them to little nieces and nephews,
For me i think it would be FiFi fox. My 5 year old daughter collects foxes but she’s not got a ‘mummy’ handmade version. I’m thinking in red and white with black boot feet! 😍
I bought the cow pattern will have to make it using heart fabrics
I haven’t met a funky friend that I do not like- I want to make them all!! But right now I think I would like to try the peacock:)
I think I would love to make the love monster. I have made the dragon and loved it.
I just love the Moose!
I have posted this to my Facebook Story! (Just now)
🥰❤ Love all the patterns, Ellie is my favourite though ❤😍
I would like to make the little bear you have on your shoulder. I don’t know it’s name but I think it’s so cute. You’re first I’m thinking first memory bear is the best! I’ve made the pig, and the rabbit just cute as can be.
Love your patterns! They are all so cute!
I would love to do a Valentine’s Diggle the Dragon!
It is a tough decision, but the Valentine’s versions of the hedgehog and elephant make me want to try one of those next. ❤️
I love the look at the peacocks too
I would love an elephant pattern to sew a memory elephant using my sons old baby clothes, plus I’d love to make an elephant made with the fleece fabric as shown above, it looks so cuddly and I’d never thought to use fleece fabric before for the animal patterns. So tactile!
I would love to make the T Rex. That is my granddaughter’s favorite dinosaur. Thank you for the opportunity. You are very generous.
I would love to sew an iguana for my son. It is on my pattern wish list!
I’d love to sew the Moose! I would make one for each of my kids.
I would love to try the Keepsake bear with some gorgeous heart fabric or just in pink or red fabric to spread the love around! Love all of your patterns!
My next project would be the elephant. I’ve made the honey bear, memory bear, butterfly and bee. My grandson (18 mon) loves them and two more grandkids are set to arrive this spring.
It’s so hard to choose 😍 and after seeing the different fabric choices it is even harder! I’d either want to make the Easter Bunny Buddies or the Harper the Happy Hobby Horse. My two kiddos would love to run around in those. ❤️
I’d love to have the “bed time baby doll” – I’d find some cute valentine’s print for their pajamas … I have 2 great-grand kids (toddlers, a boy & a girl).
I know they’d love to get a special doll from me, even the little boy would love it
This sounds FUN!
I hope to get one!♡♡♡
Puppy Pete for sure! I know just the person who needs him in his arms!
I love the moose pattern! *So* cute!!! My only grandchild, a little girl, would love him. Actually, probably not since she’s only two month’s old. But I can make him and keep him until she’s a bit older.
I can hardly wait to sew for her! <3's y'all!
Oh, I’d LOVE to win a Butch and Bella Bulldog pattern. My husband and I are active volunteers for several Bulldog rescue groups. Some of them have fundraiser auctions and making a few of these adorable Bulldogs would certainly help raise money to help care for the rescued dogs’ medications, food,vet bills, surgeries, etc. Thank you for your consideration. Ann Ford (USA)
Ohmygoodness all of these photos are adorable!! I especially like the T-Rex and Digger Daschund! I’d love to sew Digger for Valentine’s Day. He reminds me of a stuffed animal I had as a kid in the 70s.
There are a few i would like, but next, I would love a bee to add to my ever growing collection, if I win. I have a few ideas for bees 🐝 🥰 xx
I would love to try the bumble bee pattern. It’s so cute!! Butch bulldog is a close second, though. 😁
Happy Valentine
I would like to have Fifi Fox.
Your teddy pattern is what got me into sewing! Thank you!
Love the elephant and the . done in Shannon Valentine Cuddle
I would love to sew the elephant. His big ears are perfect for birthdates, ornames to personalize. It would make Rhee perfect gift
Just love your patterns. First time ever I have picked up a pattern, cut it and have every piece fit. Thank you so much. It makes sewing toys so much more enjoyable.
Sorry, forgot to add would love Diggles the Dragon.
Its really hard to choose as i love each and everyone of your patterns. But as i already own quite a few, i think it would have to be the dinosaur. Whom i would make for my grandson. Who already owns my heart ❤❤❤
I like the Dachshund pattern. I work with several Dachshund Rescue groups who periodically hold auctions to raise money for dogs that need medical care. I always donate handmade items to sell in the auctions. If I could donate a stuffed dachshund, it would bring in a nice donation to the group.
<3
I love the moose. It is so sweet <3 <3 <3
Sewing a fox with a cute heart nose would be adorable !
I would love to sew Mickey Moose for Valentines Day!!
My little guy loves all things dinosaurs. I would love to be able to make him a plush T-Rex.
So many cute choices! Really love the elephant, but also the Monster. If I win guess I’d go with the elephant first. Thanks !
All the Funky Friends are so adorable, it is so hard to decide which one I want to make next. I think my new baby step-grand-daughter needs a butterfly!
I want to make a honey bear with hearts on it for Valentines Day!!!!!
What a lovely gesture. I think I would do Honey Bear
I want the little dacshound dog Digger. I love your patterns and have quite a lot. My granddaughters love them also. Every time I get a new pattern, they have to have an animal
Your patterns are heartwarming! Looking forward to your new creations.
I would like to sew the butterfly pattern, so cute. Your patterns are great and easy to follow, love them all.
After making my poor husband listen to hundreds of T.rex facts during my palaeontology units, I’d love to make him a T.rex plush.
Ok, I lie, I want to make ME a T.rex!!
I would like to sew the fairy princess doll❤️
Randy the Rhino would be a fun
Pattern.
All the Valentine’s makes are beautiful x I’d like to make my Valentine an elephant as he is cuddly with big ears that listen and never forgets ❤
I would love to try the Patch kitty cat pattern. It looks so adorable in so many fabrics.
I would love to sew the moose pattern, I think he is amazing.
I have many of your patterns, I love them alot so easy to follow and super cute once made.
I would love to try your bee pattern, everyone loves a bee here in England!
I posted Mickey the Moose on my fb and intagram
I would like to sew the T-Rex because that is my grandson’s name. Thomas Rex or T-Rex or even T.
Absolutely love all these patterns! They’re so easy to follow and love the step by step with pictures! Now I need to figure out which one to sew up for my baby’s first Valentines!
my favourite to make is Pete the puppy but would love to make the whale and embroider on the side “Lets have a whale of a time together”.
I like many of your stuffed animals, like the moose, and your dolls, especially the Daisy Dress Up Dolls.
I tried tweeting this blog post, but it didn’t do a picture. So I pinned the moose.
I love all these toys. So many great ideas with fabric. I would love to sew Gregory Gorilla. He is so cute!
Adorable ….love the moose!
I think Calico Bear would make a sweet Valentine gift,
We were to be in Canada/Alaska for our 20th Wedding Anniversary last September and our greatest wish on this ‘Bucket List’ trip was to see wild bears and moose in their natural habitat…so to make the Funky Friends Moose in Valentine prints would be such a beautiful gift to give my hubby. Would so very much love to win ! 🙂
I love Goats! So my next project is going to be the Giddy Goats pattern.
Oh that t-rex, be still my beating heart!! If I don’t win him, I will buy him haha!
I would love to make the baby goat!
Would love to sew the lion. I love the mane around its head
They are all so beautiful. Thanks for all the inspiration you give us.
I would love the keepsake bear as I would make it for my daughter
I’d love to try out the peacock! I’ve been accumulating recycled sari fabrics and I think they’d go great together.
Loving all those cute fabrics for the Funky Friends patterns! People are so creative in their choice of fabric….gives me great ideas!
Your patterns are ALL so adorable! How do you pick just one? I think Slowpoke the SLoth would be so cute for Valentine’s Day.
I love your animal patterns, my favorite one is Puppy Dog Pete. Thank you for your wonderful patterns and ideas.
I would love to make my daughter an orca as it is her favorite animal and she wants to be a marine biologist when she grows up, but that love monster has stolen my heart!!
I think I would like to sew the fifi fox next or maybe Ellie elephant
Would love to try the calico bear pattern. I made the manatee for my grand nephew and he loves it!
LOVE your patterns. Easy to make & fun to give.
Oh my goodness that Pink Moose is Amazing – that is definitely the pattern I’d love to make ❤️
I-Guana Love You 4 Ever ❤️
A lovely Igor Iguana may not quite be as cuddly as a bear but his personality will keep you enchanted.
Oh my goodness, its soo hard, there is so many patterns I want but I’m really really infatuated with the dragon, I cannot wait to make that one.
It’s hard to choose which I would love to make for valentines as I love them all! But I think I would love to make a sloth for my H2B as they are just the cutest!
Shared to my page on Facebook ‘Steph ‘Tinkabel’ Tinkham’
I love all of your patterns but I would love to sew a dinosaur next xx
All of your patterns are cute. The several that I have made, have been easy to make following your detailed instructions. Hard to decide which one I will try next, maybe Mickey Moose. I love to see what others have done with their toys to make them unique.
I love all your animals 🥰🥰
Valentines is such a loving holiday and these animals all looks soo cute in their white and red. Im not monkeying around id love to sew them all, but the monkey will be an awsome win..😜😉
Frog Prince Charming is the next one that I want to make and I think that he would look fabulous in a Valentine print.
I would love to make my daughter, who will be 36 on Feb 15, a hippo she loves them.
I’m torn between Digger and Fifi fox. One day I want to make them all!!
Digger reminds me of the old autograph puppies, and my grandson is so into Foxes and wants to be one so its a true true being torn situation. You can flip a coin for me and pick! LOL
I would love Kangaroo pattern to send overseas.Thank you
I love Bill the Bald Eagle, he is my favorite

I love the Heather Hedgehog and the Peacocks, in the cute valentines fabric. They are sew so cute. Your patterns are all sew cute it is really hard to pick a special one.
Pauline, your patterns are so amazing!
I’m making an ark-full of pairs of your animals for my great nephew, Noah, who is 5. 😀
I would love to make your lion for one of the first of these animals because he has an August birthday like his great Auntie.
Thank you and be well!
All of the examples are so adorable! I think I would want to make a cockatoo with a pink heart on the belly ❤️
Such characters. Such personality. What imagination! Love them!
I love so many of the toys on today’s blog. For me there’s only one must for a Valentine’s toys – it has to have the cuddle factor. So even though the quilting cottons are cute, it’s fleece or fur to me this time
I would love to sew the strutting Peacock for my Valentine. A lovely soul mate for him, birds of a feather stick together!
I love all the FFF patterns as they are so cute and very easy to follow. I think I might adapt my elf pattern to make a valentines teddy. ♥️
I love these patterns! There is a touch of whimsy in each pattern that makes it lovable and likable. I have the Moose pattern and I have not made it yet. Too many projects on the back burner. When I do make it, I will choose a bright fabric such as Kaffe Fassett’s pink paperweight fabric. It will be my happy Moose place!!
Ooooh! Love all the bears. But I think Kitty Kate would be for me. We have a visiting neighbor kitten and he looks up with that sweet expression, just before he pounces. He’s a bit of trouble.
My husband and I collect penguins and I would love to make a Funky Valentine penguin for him! Or maybe a Heart-y Dinosaur for my grandson.
I think I would love to sew the Digger Dachshund. But they are all soooo cute!
I was inspired by your blog and finally did a heart-nose on Wodger today. I was tickled with how it turned out! Thank you so much for all of your hard work!!
I’m slowly sewing my way through your Funky Friends Factory patterns but I think if I had to choose it would bee the bee for Valentines
oooooh that’s a tough choice! i love the heart noses idea on the bears!!! but i also love the idea of dilby duck with a heart on his belly. oh! or maybe slowpoke the sloth hugging a heart?! can we all just take a week off to sew all the stuffies?
Oh my those are all so cute. I would love to sew the T Rex Pattern for my Dino loving boy 😁
Pauline- I love making your amazing patterns for my 7 young Grandchildren for special occasions and just because….
I think I would make a Kitty Kate as it might be better behaved than my real live kitty!
Picking just one is hard because I love all the patterns but I haven’t made a Digger Dachshund yet so that’s my choice for now.
Loving your patterns. There is simply one for anyone and for any occasion. 💕
I love your patterns. They are well-written and easy to follow. I especially love the cat patterns!
I would love to make Puppy Pete. He looks adorable. It will help to keep me busy whilst in lockdown.
There are so many more of your patterns I would like to make…..but I would love the giraffe pattern next. My daughter’s favourite animal and she has just moved into her first home and it would a lovely moving in present for her ❤🦒
Wow what an inspiration! So many to choose from! I’ve just got my sewjo back by making the elephant…but I’d love a go at the moose x
I think the Calico bear would be beautiful in Valentines fabric. I would like to make Ellie Elephant or the Orca or Dolphin or Rhino or Hippo…… oh so many patterns and so little money.!
Can’t you just see the Hippo in white fabric with colorful candy hearts all over it? So cute!!!!
Omg. Live all the patterns shown but the peacock is adorable.
I have so many of your patterns (20 to be exact), but there’s still more that I’d like. The Izzy Insomniac teddy bear, Raff (Giraffe), Dizzy Dolphin, Lloyd and Alice.
The t-rex by Tinawinterborne is so cute! I would also love to sew a t-rex!
The lion for me 🦁 everyone’s lions are amazing!! The more I look at them with the beautiful material the more I would like to sew a lion 🦁
I’d love to make slowpoke the sloth, my eldests favourite ❤️
Hi Pauline,
All the Valentine toys that others had made are adorable. I would love to win either Ollie the Owl or Kitty Kate. I love your entire collection and have a few but these two were my favourite. Thanks for the chance to win and I wish everyone good luck!
I love all your patterns. They are all so inspirational. I think I would like to make a digger dutchund pattern toy to share the love with other animal lovers too.
So many adorable creations and they all have heart! I see one, want to make that one…then another, maybe make that one…then the next one…oh my, oh my…so many wonderful ideas.
My great nieces love chickens and I would like to sew one for them.I enjoy seeing what Katrina makes with your patterns here in Cairns
Oh my, they’re all so precious!
Love the FFF pattern options- hands down the best website for plush patterns that I have found to date. 🙂
All your wonder patterns can be made in so many different materials that there is a pattern to be made for any occasion or for so many different people from fathers to mother, sisters, brothers, From baby to someone who is elderly. There is a pattern to suit everyone for every occasion
Puppy Pete is just the sweetest.
I am addicted to making all of them! I am currently making to lemurs (I always make 2 of each) and my husband made me some shelfs to store them on.
I would love to make Hannah Hedgehog for my 17 yo hedgehog loving daughter for Valentines day!
I’d love to make Kylie Kookaburra for my granddaughter to show her what that bird looks like. Her mom sings her “Kookaburra sits in the old gum tree” every night right before she goes to bed, but since they live in Pennsylvania she isn’t likely to ever see a real one!
I shared Digger Dachshund to my Facebook.
I would really love to win a free pattern. I love all of them!!!!
I’d love to sew any Funky Friends toy… But I can’t sew! Luckily my wife can and she makes lots of Funky Friends. Her latest makes are from the Ellie Elephant pattern which I bought her for her birthday.
Elli elephant is adorable
I choose the moose pattern and shared it on my Facebook page Debbie Cartin
It’s so hard to make up my mind which one I would love to do because they all would look beautiful as a Valentine toy, but since I can only pick one I think I would love to do Ellie Elephant I think she would look so cute made in the Valentine fabric and I would keep her for myself although I’m in my 70’s I wouldn’t give her to any of the kids for Valentines.
I’d like to make the elephant to add to the bears and soft dolls I’m making for pediatric dept.
Would definitely love to make Ellie Elephant, so beautiful, especially as my best friend is about to have her first Bub. What a gorgeous gift that would make!
I have made the dragon , the platypus, have pattern for the terrier and dashound and have room for more. Slowly building up my collection. I would love an other Funky Friend Pattern and if I was lucky enough would love either the hedgehog or elephant. Thank you for the opportunity to be to go in the draw.
All the patterns are the easiest to follow
Just bought the moose and I am in love 💙💕
I would love to make digger Dash hound.
Love your patterns.
Love ….love… love all your patterns, but my super favourite will be the keepsake or melody bear pattern.
Happy Valentine’s Day ❤️
I love them all, but that Valentine T-Rex is absolutely adorable. I’d make one of those. Or maybe two, or three!
They are all amazing. Would love to sew Heather Hedgehog
It’s such a hard decision as I love all the patterns! But to get one free out of all those on my list would be amazing. I’m torn between the dinosaur or the moose!
I think the moose pattern is adorable. Ideal way to spread some luv.
I love your patterns! I think I found your online shop first time in 2013 and got a bunch of patterns back then. And then more and more throughout the years. They are fantastic 🍀
Monty the Manatee would be the next to choose.
Love your patterns and tutorial was great
Loving the lion, perfect for an upcoming new arrival
Love the peacock.
I love all of these cute little friends but I think I would like to try and the elephant for my first project.
I love the love monster he doesn’t have to be just for Valentine but anytime you want a squeeze ❤️❤️❤️❤️
They are all so gorgeous! I think my favourites are the Hedgehog and the peacock! xxx
I’d love to sew all of your amazing patterns, but I just can’t decide where to start – think I’d love to start on the cat first, or maybe the bunny? Or the moose? See my dilemma? No, definitely the cat 🐈 x
How can I choose???? I love them all ❤
I think I’d have to choose Timmy the T Rex though, for my granddaughter because she is dinosaur mad and the T Rex is her favourite!
I would love to make the bee for Valentines Day. But all if the patterns are awesome.
Love all your patterns. Many to choose from.
I love these guys they are all so cute! I want to sew a Dino for my granddaughter.
I love all your patterns Pauline I am going to but the 3 patterns soon the memory bear and 2 others but would love start making toys and your patterns look so easy thank you for the chance to win a pattern for valentines day
Any pattern would be wonderful. Diggles the Dragon would be fantastic
I love Fifi Fox… looks just like my Rocky, a chihuahua pom terrier mix! I also saw your Moose you made and it rocks too! Reminds me of my Aunt Julie who is in her 80’s, lives in Calif., and she loves moose! It is so adorable!!! All of your patterns are great. Nice work and I like the way you just showed how we can change things up like for Valentine’s Day! Thanks much! Prayers and fingers crossed!
I have a number of your patterns,so easy to make, my grandsons would really love the t-rex dinosaur. Their birthdays are coming up soon.
Jenny
I think the Diggy the Dragon would look awesome in a wild heart fabric with glittery wings!
Love these!!
Larry Lion would ne my choice. His mane would be great with lots of hearts
I would love to sew the moose. It’s so cute!
Such a hard decision!!! I think I want the the T-Rex though. I need more boy stuff😍
I would love to make the Daisy Dress Up Doll.
She looks so sweet and I am sure she will be easy to make with your great instructions
Lucky the Labrador please. I miss mine.
Nearly finished my first teddy.
I’d love to sew Diggles the dragon. My SO loves dragons and that would be the perfect gift for him!
❤️ Valentines Day ❤️ Funky Friends make my heart feel young again.
🐉 Biggles the Dragon 🐉 for me please.
Dig goes the dragon. Poor eyesight. Cheers
Diggles Diggles Diggles
I posted Micket Moose to my FB site. They are all so darned cute but he reminds me of my Aunt Julie in California. She’s in her 80’s and loves moose!!! Thanks for the chance again!!! xo… Peg in Pa.
I think I’d have to sew a Love Lion and make his mane out of heart patterns but also get some little plastic hearts to embellish his mane as well.
I would live to sew Trixie Triceratops. I think that frill will pop with some heart material. An A-Rawr-able valentine.
Pour la Saint-Valentin, j’aimerais coudre un koala ou un hippopotame ce serait tellement cool avec des petits coeurs et de l’amour partout!
I’d love to win the Flamingo for valentines.
All the funky friend patterns are amazing, it’s so hard to pick the best one! I think I’d choose the Seahorse for my son to go with his collection of nautical things. A new friend for his cuddly fish! Thank you Pauline for all these lovely Patterns 🧸🙂
I’d like to sew the horse one for a friend who has recently lost her beloved 4 legged friend. I plan to sew it from his blanket.
I’d like to try making a memory bear I’ve had a few friends recently loose a parent
I love your creativity! Your patterns are sensational and I’d love to make the puppy dog.
All so adorable and inspired by your amazing patterns . I have so many on my wish list but my next one has to be a moose for my mums birthday. She collects then to remind her of my step father who’s nickname in the army was ‘moose’ .
Ooo Fleur the flamingo in lovely pink and red with hearts on her wing (heart on her sleeve?)
I’d like to make a petunia pig to send to a dear friend of mine who runs a pig sanctuary and and has a young family. Her children would love it. Would have to make more than one though😘
I would love to make the moose for Valentine’s Day.
We have our first grand child on the way in March 2021,haven’t been able to see my daughter all throughout her pregnancy as she is a Nurse on the Covid ward here in the UK so would be really nice just to make something special for our new grandson. All your patterns are wonderful so very hard to choose a favourite.
I can’t decide. I think one of the bears, but the cat is so adorable too.
I would like the dinosaur pattern and make it look like Nessy from just up the road here in Scotland.
There are so many gorgeous patterns to choose from! After much deliberation I think I would pick “Puppy Dog Pete” as my Valentine’s make as he’s such a sweetie x
I shared on Instagram- I’m going to see if my followers can guess which pattern I picked too m 🙂
These stuffed animals are so adorable . I would love to sew them. I am new to sewing. Thank you for letting me post to your blog
Hi so impressed with everyone’s funky friends have a lot of the paterns but still a few on the wish list will eventually get them all . Granddaughter is just so taken with them all and even my 84yr old mum just loves her iguana haven’t got time to make a valentine animal trying to get some rabbits made for Easter whilst working as a nurse in aged care
Couldn’t think of anything else better to do than sit at my sewing machine all day making some fabulous cuddlies .
I think it would have to be a koala for my koala mad little boy. I’ve got over 20 of your lovely patterns already, but this one I need! I’m always making them for other people and forget to make them for my own children!
Hi, all your pattern are beautiful. I think a dragon is a good choice for vaentins day, because a dragon can be everthing – funny, nice, lovely, dangerous, take car of you. Look at Elliot from Disney – he is so nice !
I love your moose, but I would love to make a Jack Russell for a young man whose dog was run over. Your patterns are so good I know it would be lovely.
I would love to sew a cat❤️
Do I have to choose? I can’t… 😳
Whitney, Sue, Sparkles, Oreo, Oscar and Mickey. 😁
Oscar and Oreo would remind my girls if our trip to Canada in ’17 (who knew otters could make so much noise eating? 😳).
Sue for the squirrels in our garden (here they are not very common and we love them).
Whitney reminds me of a witch my grandma had in her house.
Sparkels because I just looove seahorses! Could be so cute as a unicorn too.
Finally, Mickey reminds of a dear friend from AUS, whom I haven’t seen for many, many years (I live in northern Europe).

The moose pattern is the sweetest. But I love each and everyone.
I love all the patterns. For me I would love to do a T. rex for my son as he’s my Valentine 🥰💝
Hugs

So many people I want to
Hug
I would love to have a go at making the beautiful butterfly!
I think I’d have to go traditional with the monsters – my two kiddies would love them, but I also love the dashund! He’d look so snuggly in a heart fleece fabric ❤️❤️
LOVE your work and your patterns. Can’t wait to try one out myself!! ❤️😊
I love your patterns I have only brought 2 so far but I really love them I think the next pattern will be izzy-insomniac-teddy-bear there’s just to many to chose from
I love them all but if I get to pick I would choose the butterfly or the love monster my grandchildren would love them as much as me
I love all your patterns but mainly use the calico bear to create keepsakes and memory bears for people. It would be wonderful to add Heather the Hedgehog to my collection as we live in Hedgehog Cottage! 🦔❤🦔🤞
These are all so fun.
I would like the butterfly for valentine
I would sew a Calico Bear, for our grandson, as the one he was given from his other Grandma has long since perished, after 23 years of constant love. We both did repairs over the years, but Diana has since passed away, and this would be one more way I can keep her in all our lives every day.
The otter would be adorable holding a little heart! One of the few I don’t have and one I’ve definitely been wanting to add for a while!
I love all your patterns ♥️. I’ve sewn a few and love how easy the instructions are to follow.
I’m new to toy making but hope to make all of your fabulous fabric creations . Can’t make my mind up which to choose either the elephant or moose.
I’d make a cute valentines bunny. Just think with the floppy ears it could be super cute ❤️
I am in love with the flamingo pattern!! My valentine’s tree theme is flamingos and hearts this year.
I love all your patterns but would love to see a valentines triceratops!
I would live to sew a Valentine toy – what to pick though. So many beautiful choices ❤️ X
Love all your patterns!
I would love to make the daschund for my children’s teachers. They are working very hard during lockdown here in the UK and my children are missing the school dog Dexter.
All your patterns are so cute! The little Joey Kangaroo is so cute!
Love these patterns I have bought a few but need more I love the different bears I have the melody bear but need to try calico bear
T-Rex for me please
I posted a picture of the puppy with hearts on my Facebook page.
Have shared post on Facebook
Love your patterns
I love all your patterns but I think I would love Larry the lion pattern if I were to win. Inspired by the photos in this post, I shall be adding hearts to the nose & side of my almost finished Honey Bear
I’d like to try one of the newer patterns for Valentine’s Day. I mean seriously, wouldn’t you love a Licorice “Love” Lemur? Although, I’m thinking a heart on Trixie Triceratops’ tuchus would look pretty cute, too!
I would love to make the dog pattern for my daughter
Can I please have a beginner pattern as I am just learning.
I would love to use some lovely Valentine’s themed fabric to make your beautiful elephant soft toy ❤️ elephants never forget! 🐘
I currently only use the Calico bear pattern, I’d love to try any of the others, they’re so great!
I think I wouid love to sew Fifi Fox or Larry the lion! I thihk they’ll look adorable in red and pink colours.
I have just made the lion – I love it. The pattern fitted beautifully. I would love to make a moose.
I love your patterns.I have recently had a hip replacement and sewing has kept me ‘sane”.Thank you x
I had a hard time choosing. They are all adorable. My final decision is the BUTTERFLY.
I need to make a bunch of Keepsake bears for friends.
It’s hard to choose but I would love to make a valentines Raff 🦒
Now I’ve finished work, I have some time to make some (OK, lots) of Funky Friends! Now, where to start????
Mate for sure my daughter loves the unicorn whale
Funky Friends is what we need to get through these rough days!
I’m still trying to choose which pattern to start with for my grand-daughter. I do love the fox!!
Mi piacerebbe cucire la capra oppure l’alce sono molto belli
I absolutely love your patterns. I only discovered them recently, so I would love a chance to expand my small collection
Have honey bear pattern printed and ready to go. Would love to win elephant pattern if I’m lucky. Such a good source of gorgeous patterns. ❤️
So nice of you!
I’m torn between the hedgehog and the triceratops 🙂
It’s not easy to choose because I love all your patterns, but I voted this time for your squirrel pattern. 🙂
I would love the love monster. It looks so cuddly!
I’ve got the lion to sew up from my grandsons baby clothes. He thinks his middle names lion 🦁 😂 because we all call him Leo lion . Seen a couple of puppy dogs up . Amazing patterns with great instructions 😍
I’m really new to your page and am currently making the platypus with your daily updates and guidance. I’m hooked and would love to try more. That beautiful hedgehog is definitely calling my name
So many lovely patterns hard to choose ive done the free Teddy pattern instructions so clear enjoyed sewing it x
I have been giving young children who end up in E.R at hospitals these lovely toys now for about 1 year and since I have found your great designs it so much of interest for me to sew much more thank you Pauline.
Ooooh I would like to sew a little red fox for Valentine’s 💘🦊❤️
Thank you for sharing the love, we could all do with a little more just now!
Ellie the elephant

All of the patterns are adorable. I wouldn’t know which one to choose 🤔
Think it would have to be T-Rex made with love❤️
I would like to sew a Jake the puppy. He is so cute
I love FFF toys all! I am sewing by hand until now just my old pattern from a course in Hungary. I think after finish ing Pauline’s free course it would be the time to begin with these sweeties. My candidates are Keepshake bear and the Fox.
I have Melody and Calico bear and now I’d like the Hedgehog pattern, she’d make a great doorstop 🙂
Great patterns thank you I hope I win competition 😂
I love all your patterns. Think I’d have the calico bear. 💜
I love all of your patterns, but a dinosaur would be really cute to make!
I would love to win the Racoon pattern as my boyfriend said the other day how cute it was. I’d sew him his own for valentines
I would love to win any pattern of yours, i love them all so i would be hard pressed to choose one, but i will….
I love all the patterns but I think I would love to try the lion or fox for valentines ❤️
I would really LOVE to make up a Harper hobby horse each for my daughters, who I know would enjoy them to play and escape into their own fairytale 🙂
A valentines butterfly sounds good to me. Love this. Thank you for all you do.
Your patterns are all adorable. I would love the lamb pattern if I were to win😀❤️
I think I would love the elephant pattern—very, very cute.
If I were lucky enough to win, I’d love Ellie the elephant.
I love cats, therefore I would like the cat pattern
Shared the cute photo of different coloured love monsters here https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10157986470968105&id=605983104
It would definitely be a dinosaur for me!
Easter bunny buddies would be a fantastic FF pattern, my grandson would love it.
Easter bunny bunnies is a fantastic pattern I’d love to make
New to Funky Friends (and sewing toys) but love the straightforward instructions and helpful tips. I’d like to sew the puppy next.
Great inspiration for valentine makes. Only thing I need now is 72hr days 😂. So many cute things to make, so little time.
Puppy Pete is so cute – I think that will definately be next FFF pattern, having already made the honey bear, calico bear, patch the cat and recently the platypus. Instructions are so great and clear, that it makes the whole experience fun.
Love all your patterns. The moose is absolutely amazing.
I love all of your patterns but I would love to try the moose or the lion. I am totally loving doing the Melody bear
Those are so cute! I love seeing other people’s funky friends! Thank you for being so generous!
Awesome patterns. Especially love the memory bears and the moose
I’ve only made the seahorse so far and loved it! I would absolutely love to make Patch the Pussy cat.
There are so many gorgeous patterns to choose from but if I was lucky enough to win I would choose Ellie Elephant as she is already on my to do list.
Your patterns all look so great. It’s hard to decide which one to choose. At this moment I love your monster pattern!
I 💕 all the valentine toys above! I 💕 your Heather 🦔 pattern! 🦔💕
Your patterns are so clever. They show the research you must do before you begin to draw up a pattern. It’s the small things I have noticed in particular like the curve of the giraffe’s hind legs & the great faces of various animals. There is just so much detail in each pattern. You certainly are a perfectionist & it shows. Following any of your written instructions are so helpful & I often find them better than a tutorial. Thank you Pauline so much for all you do & I look forward to making Funky Friends Factory toys for all to see & enjoy!
Hi, I’ve not plunged I yet, though I have to say I’ve had my eye on the Lion and would love to see it done up in a Valentine outfit.
I would like to try Melody bear. Just half way through making my very first Calico bear to see if I could do it. Not perfect but getting there 🐻. Thank you so much for the opportunity to try making it!
As I live in CapeTown any of the African animals would be a winner but elephants are one of my absolute best animals ….so Ellie 🐘
I would love to make Heather Hedgehog, I think she is so cute x
The unicorn for sure!
I’d like to try the Love Monsters- they look so cute, and quick to make. I may leave off the horns, though, or make them into ears. 🙂. Thanks!
I already purchased the pattern for Ellie, and I do like the looks of your funky lizards, but how can a girl pass up a chance to meet (make) a real Frog Prince?!?! He is the next one I want to try to make!
What’s not to love about Funky Friends they are all so cute
I love them all
I’m thinking of making Heather Hedgehog for my husband since I’m a Heather!
I absolutely love all of your patterns and feel that any of them would be adorable in valentines fabrics. If I were to win, I’d like to do lucky the Labrador.
I have loved using your Calico Bear pattern, it has really helped me. I would love to have a go at the Ellie the Elephant or Keep me Keepsake bear patterns. I’m really enjoying seeing the end results and everyone I make is different
I have always loved Puppy Pete. He’s such a cutie!
I’m working on a valentines wombat but I’ve been eying the peacock and hedgehog patterns and they would be really fun in red/white my daughters favorite colors so would be loved year round
I have several patterns. Love them. Grandkids love platypus. ❤️
I would love Ellie Elephant. I would make two with trunks entwined for my daughter and her fiancee who should have married on the 15th Feb 2020 but it is now next year.
I love the digger pattern. It is hard to pick one . They are all so cute.
I love , love all the patterns I’ve got!! I’ve done a Melody bear in buffalo plaid and Jean material. So cute! Right now I actually have 5 new friends waiting to be sewn together. I’m excited to get daisy done for my granddaughter. Thanks for the awesome patterns!
OMG, such a cute collection of patterns. So creative!! I’ve got my eye on the moose to make.
Love this web site it has kept me going during lockdown
I made a vow to work my way through my Funky Friends pattern collection this year and sew them all . I absolutely love each and every one. They are so adorable on paper, but once I stitch them up they come to life, each one with its own personality . I love all of the examples in this blog post. I love using various fabrics just to see what the results will be. I am loving the plaids and gingham right now. I think I might do a Valentine’s unicorn this week from my pattern collection. If I were to choose a pattern I don’t have it would be either the triceratops or hobby horse. I am really happy that you started the Facebook group, seeing everyone’s adorable pictures makes my day.
I shared the moose to pinterest and the adorable peacocks to my Facebook page. Thanks again for all you do. Your patterns have brought alot of joy to me in making them and to all of the people who have received them. You have touched the lives of many many people
I love all the patterns. So far I have 15 off them. I have sewn the calico bear, honey bear and the Easter rabbit. I keep buying patterns as they are all so cute I would love to see a red panda or a Quokka pattern. If I were to win I would buy the sloth.
Only sewn one pattern so far but have caught the bug! Would love to work my way up to the Dragon which is the one I really want to sew.
Your patterns are too cute!! I have a hard time deciding which I want to sew first. Seeing the valentine Digger the Dachshund took me back to my childhood. We actually had a Dachshund we named Digger!
I love the valentine elephant…… and the bumble bee. Such fun patterns!
I would love the cat pattern for my Great drand daughter who because of Covid i cant see her and they live in texas and i am in Pa

All of your patterns are amazing! I am having a hard time deciding between Kitty Cat Kate and the Heather the Hedgehog.
The Moose would look great for Valentine’s! I love them all!
I would love to make a sweet Patti the Cow for Valentine’s! Just purchased a bunch of patterns and she was next on my list. She would look so darling with hearts & plenty of pink and red!
I’ve been wanting to try your new gorilla pattern. He’s “tots adores”! Just waiting for the right person to sew for. I just recently finished one of the twin bunnies for a baby shower gift.
Your Moose pattern is my absolute favorite! I collect Moose, so this pattern would definitely be my choice!
I reposted the moos3 by StaceyParsons to my Facebook page.
OMG i would love to do a hedgehog …or a dog or a cat, your examples look totally awesome with hearts.

I’d love to sew a monkey in a cute Valentines print! I have a niece who loves the toys I’ve made from your patterns and she doesn’t have a monkey yet.

I love your patterns. They are so stinking cute!! I would love to win goat. That is the cutest and I don’t have that one. Thanks so much
I have been thinking my 3 yr old twin Great Grandkids need monsters, I would love to win the monster pattern.
I love how you use sweet fabric on the little monsters. Such a cute combination!
I’d really love to sew up any of these adorable cuties! Happy Valentine’s Day everyone!!!
I love all these valentines FFF animals. The kitty Kate was my favorite 😻
Difficile de choisir car plusieurs modèles sont adorables et feraient craquer. Mais j’ai une préférence pour Élie l’éléphant car mon chéri adore les éléphants et il ne s’attendrait vraiment pas à en recevoir un. Par contre je lui coudrais une petite poche devant afin de lui laisser un petit mot doux 😉😍😍😍
I’d love to sew diggles the dragon he looks great
The butterfly is so adorable. I would sew that one or the bear with a heart nose.
I love all of your patterns, they are well created. I have about 40+ patterns so I probably would get Randy Rhino.
I really want to make Monty Manatee, maybe enlarged to pillow size. We have two new grandchildren born during the pandemic that we have not yet been able to meet. The little girl is getting Ellie Elephant in pink and gray cuddle fleece. The little boy has a marine life themed nursery and Monty would be perfect!
So many great patterns… but as I am a crazy about cats lady..would love the kitty pattern. Stay safe and Happy❤️Day to you
J’adorerais faire le papillon pour ma petite fille car je n’ai pas d’amoureux… j’ai eu beaucoup de mal à choisir, je découvre ce site où tous les modèles sont magnifique, bravo.

Thanks for being such an inspiration to us all Pauline! I would definitely choose the hedgehog because it is just adorable:)
All the patterns are so cute. Love stuffed toys so much. The Koala and the Moose look really fun, like their faces

Because I love butterflies (already have that pattern.
I reposted to both my Facebook and Pinterest. 🥰
I just finished my first one and it was Patches the cat. So I’m thinking either the calico bear or Heather the hippo would be cute for valentines.
They are all adorable but the moose won out as my favorite to sew in Valentine colors. I would love to make them all!
I just found your patterns. They are adorable! I would like to try the hedgehog as my first! Thank you!
I love the love monster. I haven’t given my grands a monster yet.
Funky Friends patterns are so much fun to make, thank you!
The dragon is next on my wish list then the sea horse.
So hard to choose!! My kids are like me and into non-traditional type animals so it’s a toss up between the octopus or the otter.
There are several patterns I am wanting to make. The gorilla, kangaroo, the bulldog, just to name a few. They are all so cute and would make great Valentine gifts. Thanks so much for this group and blog. I get so many great ideas.
I would love to win a lamb for your Valentin promotion! Happy Valentine to you Pauline and group!
I shared the moose picture to my Face Book page
I would love to make the Giddy Goats for my son and daughter-in-law. They raise pygmy goats that are about the same size as the Giddy Goats when they are born.
Hi Pauline,
Thanks for the opportunity to win one of your patterns.
I think, if I was lucky enough to win I would like the Lucky the Labrador pattern. My dogs have been the luckiest dogs I’ve owned, because they get to help my 2 boys and myself as companion dogs. If it wasn’t for them I don’t think our life would be as rewarding as it is, so what a better way than to immortalise them with your pattern.
I’ve been searching for a bear pattern I liked for years, thankfully I found your signature bear, totally amazing have made this so many times I feel I can make it with my eyes closed. Thank you, your patterns are wonderful 😍
I would love to sew up an elephant for my sister in law who is expecting.
I love to digger dog reminds me of our dog of 14 years that passed away. We sure do miss him.
They are all so adorable! Especially the little love monsters! They are just huggable!!! ❤
Such a hard decision! I think the bunny, or dachshund….or the lion….but the fox is adorable…..🤷🏻♀️
These are all so cute! My wishlist keeps getting bigger!! I think my next purchase will be Melody bear
I really enjoyed the beginner lesson for the platypus. It’s such a weird animal, my granddaughter doesn’t recognize it. I’d like to win the elephant for Valentine’s since it’s her favorite animal.
I know any of them would be appreciated! My granddaughter is addicted to all! I love how changing up the fabrics sends a whole new hug of wishes! I am torn between the elephant and the moose! Thank you for sharing.
I love your patterns, All of them are adorable. I think the bunny would be cute to sew up for Valentines day.
I just found out about FFF a few weeks ago and I’m excited to start making some of these new friends because they are all so cute. I have to get some minky first but I also need a pattern. I would absolutely love to win one. So hard to choose but I like the Lion or Ellie the Elephant!!!
Just purchased a memory bear pattern, can’t wait to get started!
Ellie Elephant would be my first choice. I am in love with Licorice the Lemur! Decisions! Decisions!
I would love to make the Butterfly for a great, great, great niece coming in June. Babies love bright colors and this would be perfect.
There’s so many choices, but I think I’d have to go with Digger Dachshund.
Love all the FFF patterns. In process of making a memory bear! Hard choice to pick the next friend to make.
I would like to make a valentine Diggles the Dragon. Imagine all the hearts and love he could deliver on his Cupid wings.
I would love to win the adorable Fifi Fox pattern. but all of your patterns are so cute, it is hard to decide.
Honestly, all the patterns are so adorable, its hard to decide which to make first! My nephew is really into dinosaurs, but my niece loves elephants…or do I make the peacock for one of my adult friends? I’d probably go with the dinosaur, especially since I made him a bookbag of dino material already, and the toy would look sweet peeking out of the bag’s pocket.
Ellie the Elephant – I would love to sew this for a birth announcement. There is something about Elephants that is so sweet.
I’d love to make the dachshund. My Valentine’s gift last year was the most adorable dachshund puppy so I’d love to make him in toy form.
I just love the hedgehog, moose, and t-rex pattern!!! 😻 they are all so cute!
I love them all, but probably would choose Foxy since I have wanted her for a while.
I posted Ellie the elephant from this blog post on my Pinterest Zoeyclaws
Hi Pauline
I think I would like our girls to see up a moose!!
So cute and we have friends up north that would love it as a gift!
your patterns are great and it is amazing how people make them
owould like the moose pattern
Slowpoke the Sloth. My 32 year old daughter is obsessed and collects stuffed animals. She would love it!
Your recent online Plattie tutorials were so much fun and I too wanted to share some Funky Friends. I bought my grandkids a Bernstein Academy machine and we’ve launched sewing classes. We’ll all be making our very own Plattie soon and I feel certain they will soon be filling their rooms with many Funky Friends. It’ll be fun to see which ones they chose first! Thank you so much for being, as my granddaughter put it, “sew funderful”!
Hallo,
ich würde gern das Kitty Kate Muster gewinnen und nachträglich an meine Freundin verschenken, sie ist der größte Catlover ever.
Timmy Triceratops and the T-Rex. I’ve just recently found your soft toys after watching so many people make them from Shannon Cuddle fabric.
I would sew Puppy Dog Pete in Valentine fabric. We have a new grandbaby, and it would be perfect for his first Valentine’s Day!
I had the pleasure of making your horse to go with a horse-inspired baby quilt. Now I would LOVE to sew your moose for myself!
I would love to try a Digger Dachshund for my next toy. Just started and have made 2 Melody bears. LOVE all of the patterns.
You are so creative and talented to design all these patterns. I would have a terrible time choosing just one, but it can be done.
Thanks so much for the opportunity! Your patterns are awesome!!!
After seeing all the wonderful pictures, I would love to sew a butterfly!
I’m hoping to sew a chicken soon so probably the Cheeky Chook would be my pick. I don’t see it in the shop though? Will it be back?
I love the Valentine Digger the pup!!! Great ideas for my grandchildren, and still time to get one or two done.
These are ALL so cute made in Valentine’s prints! I have about a dozen of these patterns and it motivates me to make a few of ’em up.
I would love to win the Keep me Keepsake Bear Pattern, I have the Honey Pattern and love the say it sews up. I could make so many loves for my grand children and friends.
I would love to make my daughter a giraffe, out of the fabrics she brought me back from Africa.
I love those monsters! They are the cutest little guys but I would love to have the moose pattern. He’d look so adorable with hearts hanging from his antlers.
I really like the keepsake bear pattern, but they are all cute!
I already have 7 of your patterns and love them all. I’d really like to add Valentine’s Monster to the family! He would be easily adapted to birthdays and anniversaries, too. Thank you for all the adorable critters for us to love and sew!!
I would like to do a foxy valentine
I posted a picture of the Valentine’s Moose on my FB page because he is so adorable. Just had to share with all my friends.
https://www.facebook.com/helen.donahue/
I would choose Licorice the Lemur. My son loves Zoboomafoo!
I saved the Valentine’s Day Keepsake Bear to my Pinterest. He’s so cute!!
I love all of these valentines ideas! I think my favorite is the hedgehog, but the one I want to do is the elephant.
Sue the Squirrel! She’s so adorable and with the dog loving friends and I it would be super cute in a valentine’s fabric!!!
It’s hard to choose just one but my grandson would love the dinosaur
I have made 2 Timmy T Rex, a Digger & Dixie and Stu the turtle all for my granddaughters. They have been fun and the kids LOVE them! I would love to win William the Whale as my grandson (William) saw it at a fabric shop and loved it. I don’t think he knew the name of the whale, neither did I until I looked up the pattern.
I posted on FaceBook your Love Monster.
I love elephants along with my sister (she is fighting cancer). I grow up hearing a saying “elephants never forgets”. So I would make her Ellie so she would know and remember she is loved.
Love all your patterns. Can’t wait for the next one.
I would love to give the lamb a try this year. All the patterns I have made have been a real hit. Everyone wants to see what I will make next.
My Grandson is begging for a bunny to love, so I would like the Easter Bunny Buddies pattern to make for him.
My grandkids “fight” over who gets the next animal; they all are so cute. I’d like to try the Kangaroo or Kookaburra next.
Love your creative style! The Hedgehog is just TOO cute!!
Those peacocks are from years ago! I forgot about them ❤️ Hot lips peacock stayed in my studio with me for a long time!
Everyone looks great in some hearts I want to get the gorilla pattern and make her a lovely tutu.
Paging through all of the pictures I think I would make hedge hogs for my favorite peeps. That one hasn’t caught my eye before, but its awfully cute in holiday fabric!
I love the heart shaped noses and to me, the gorilla pattern makes the nose LOOK like a heart even though I don’t think it means to? Maybe it does… that one is on my wish list!
I adore them all the hedgehog dragon dogs and all the other animals. I’m new to this so I’m hoping to make the bear first for my grandson.If all goes well I’ll try another one I have family that would love them .
I’m new to Funky Friends and would LOVE to sew Ellie Elephant. I think she is the most adorable elephant I have ever seen!
If I where to win I would pick Elle the elephant She is adorable
So many darling stuffies!! Pauline your designs make the world a bit happier. The koala is my fave.

I would love to see the moose pattern for my grand babies for valentines! I’ve made several of you patterns and love all of them so much!❤️
Hard decision but I’d go with Dixie and Digger dachshund for a cute valentine pair
A Valentine hippo!!!! All of these are super cute, the moose is my favorite of the ones shown, that would also be super fun.
So many adorable patterns I adore Ellie the elephant
Ellie Olifant Knuffelpatroon – need I say more 🙂
I’d like to sew “Nate the Narwhal” for Valentines. The Post-It Notes are really cute too.
I just adore all your patterns! You are amazing to giveaway a pattern! and I just love the joy these patterns bring!
I think the Easter Bunny would be great in valentine fabric!
I would make my sister a sloth. They are adorable. I gave away away mooses (mice?) for Christmas and they were loved.
I would love to have the Digger Dachshund pattern. What a perfect pet!
My grandsons love dinosaurs so the T. rex would be just perfect. The patterns are usually very easy to follow and complete. Love the characters
I would love to sew the Digger Dachshund! I had a doxie as a child and would love to commemorate him. Love your patterns!
I’d stitch Sparkles Seahorse using some Shannon Cuddle Valentine hearts cuddle. Add some solid pinks and red and I think it would turn out darling! You have the cutest patterns. I’d love to see you come out with machine embroidery patterns for eyes, noses, mouth and maybe small add-ons for your patterns. hint, hint, hint
I made eight funky friends for Christmas gifts and I just loved every minute making them. I would like to make a hedgehog for my 15 year old granddaughter.
Hi. Since I don’t have grandkids and live alone with my BratCat, Chip, I would like to make Kitty Kate, the cat. They are all adorable!
Crocodile Steve says, “Oh, SNAP! I want to be your Valentine!”

I would like to do Digger or Heather! They all are adorable so it’s hard to decide! Your patterns are the best!
The Calico Bear pattern is the one I’d choose!
Can’t wait to make Mickey the Moose for Valentine’s Day. He is so adorable and I have the perfect little person in mind that will love to snuggle with him and let him capture her heart. ❤️
I just shared the pic of the cute Valentine’s Day moose on my Facebook page. So adorable. Love it!
I would love Dilby Duck. Such a cutie. Love your designs. Wish you had a stingray.
I love everything about Christmas and have just seen your Reggie Reindeer pattern and would love to give this a try. I am just a beginner, so I would keep this as my first ever make.
I want to reduce the Hedgehog pattern and make it for my daughter who is facing a second possible cancer after just being in remission for 6 months! I think it would cheer her up and remind her that I love her lots and am always by her side…..
Dino
I would really like to make Puppy Dog Pete,but I actually love them all.Your patterns are the best for making animals and you supply the best instructions ever,Thanks so much.
It is so hard to choose just one, any of them would be a perfect Valentine. I think the moose or Ellie are adorable.
I make alot of toys for my sons class. He is a kindergarten teacher in a low income area. Your patterns (which I own several of) are the perfect size and your animals are always a huge hit. I do not have a hedgehog pattern, so that is the one I would choose.
Thanks for doing this and keep up the great work.
Proud Mom. Vickie
I have made so many of your patterns and my five grandchildren loved getting each of their favorite animals. I was able to find a Funky Friends pattern for exactly what each one wanted!
I would love to add the Easter Bunny Buddies pattern to my collection, as a free pattern.
I love all the patterns and have made several. The hardest thing to do for me is deciding which to do next!! I don’t have Moose or Butterfly yet and I would choose one of them. Oh, my … what to do, what to do. Thanks so much for sharing … Hmm .. If I win, I’d have to take Moose and buy Butterfly!! Happy day!!
I just bought Moose so now have to choose between Butterfly and Bumble Bee … need to sign before I buy both!! Thanks again for sharing.
❤️I would love Gregory Gorilla I think he is gorgeous ❤️
❤️🦝 loving the red and pink heart fabrics so think I’ll have to get looking for some to make Licorice the Lemur as he would look very cute 🥰
I love your patterns. I got the Butch & Bella Bulldogs to make this year for myself.
I would love to sew a bunch of the Guinea pigs, cuz who doesn’t love a guinea pig?!
I really like the Valentine’s Moose pictured in this blog post. It’s the one sewn by StaceyParsons. How cute with heart fabrics! This is the picture that I posted on my Facebook page. How adorable! Here is where I shared it.

I love the bunnies!!
What a fun Valentine giveaway!
I’m new to sewing stuffed friends. I have made two of your patterns, several times each. My grandkids love them. I have my eye on a couple of more I’d love to try. They are super fun!
I posted extra on Facebook. 🙂
All of these funky friends are too stinking cute and adorable.
I love the butterfly. I think it would be really fun and cute to sew for Valentines Day.
I have many FFF patterns. Your designs are adorable and I find your directions well written and easy to follow. I do not own the butterfly pattern, so that would be my choice. My favorite to make is the llama.
Hearts are great anytime of year! Great ideas with adding a heart on the belly of a Teddy or using a heart as the nose. The Valentine renditions of the Funky Friends are so cute! And I like the Love Monster a lot. How cute!
I’d love yo make a little love bunny! 💘
I love all the Funky Friends but I love the puppies the best. Any of these cute creatures would make a great Valentine’s Day gift.
I think the fox is cute! But honestly, any will do because they are all so cute!
Sooooo hard to pick just one …giggle… but I love the “Baby Bunny Rabbit ” 😀 Thank you for chance to win your Give-a-way too 🙂
I think Diggles is appropriate for every holiday (and every other day of the year too!)
Thank you for this free giveaway! I absolutely adore ALL of the Funky Friends animals.
Happy Monday everyone!
So far I’ve made a bear pattern from your pattern list, but I think I also have one of the puppy patterns that I have yet to make. I really appreciate how easy they are to follow. I don’t have much experience with sewing, but I think making stuffed animals for family members and friends is always so fun.
If I had to pick one, I’d probably pick the hedgehog to receive because my brother and his girlfriend used to have a hedgehog who they loved, but he died. It was terribly sad. I think they’d like having a little memento to remember him.
A little back story, my great aunt (who was basically my grandmother) had sewn me several bears when I was around 7. She also would sew me blankets that folded into pillows. I still have one. Now that I’m an aunt, I hope to pass on the tradition to my nieces and nephews. It lovely that something like sewing can leave lasting memories.
Sorry if this is too mushy. Haha.
Love all the work you put into your blog and designs!!

Thank you for this giveaway! I am kinda feeling the love monster 🙂 but then again ….. I love my hedgies!
A valentine hedgehog!
I would love to make my SO a valentine’s Rex. We both love dinosaurs so much that I think it would be the perfect gift.
I would choose the moose to make for my granddaughter who is decorating her room in a woodland theme.
I really like puppy dog Pete but seeing him done in Valentine’s Day fabric made me love him even more. What a cutie!
Love how easy your patterns are to follow! The memory bear pieces fit perfectly together and is the BEST bear pattern I’ve used
So fabulous to find a source for truly inspiring patterns. Pauline is a genius!
Ellie the Elephant is a pattern I would love to sew. I think my grandchildren would love her!
I love all of the patterns I have .. I think Puppy Dog Pete would be great for Valentine’s Day
All of your patterns and all of the ones that people have sewn are beautiful. I think I love the elephants and hedgehogs the best. Thank you for the chance.
Just finished my Moose project so much fun!! I made 6 Moose and a Lion for my grandchildren for Valentine’s Day . Great Patterns loved the tutorials that are available .
I love getting stuffed toys for Valentines Day. They are keepsakes now.
I would love to make a Lambkins Lamb. Any color, any holiday, any reason, that’s the one I’d want most of all.
So hard to pick…. I had my daughter help me. She thinks the dachshund.
Thank you for the opportunity to win a pattern.. It will be very hard to pick — but I’ve been wanting to attempt an elephant for a while now.. this would be great!! Thank you!
I’d love to make a Valentine softie from the Easter Bunny Buddies pattern! Thanks for all of the fun!!
I think making a Ladybug into a Lovebug by replacing its spots with hearts would be really cute! But I also love the idea of a Valentine’s Day dragon!
I would sew the dachshund! So many fabric options!!
An elephant and a lamb are the most requested Funky Friends in my sewing room, although there’s a guinea pig and a Honey Bear currently waiting for their personalities to take shape!
I was all ready to say the Elephant (because I’ve already made one and a heart elephant would be adorable) but as a Canadian I have to say the Moose!!!
It’s so fun seeing all the cute fabrics people have used and also reading these comments. There are so many Funky Friends Fans! Very hard to make a choice, but I think the T-Rex would be a fun one to try. Thanks for the chance to win!
I absolutely love this site and your little friends. I would love to have the oomph to sew a lot of them for the local hospital but I just can’t seem to focus on getting it done. I need encouragement and a big push so if anyone has some extra motivation please send it my way. And have fun making all these loving little animals, too.
I would love to sew the elephant or the floppy eared bunny.
I love the monster! Soooo cute! I’ve made many FF animals and each time I give one away, I get lots of smiles!
My daughter would love the peacock! Her birthday is February 15th so would make a great surprise 😊
I’ve made Melody Memory Bears for all my family as a special keepsake of our beloved Mom. (Because of your pattern, they all think I am a great seamstress.)
I bought the fabric to make the Honey Bear but haven’t done it yet. Too many birthday presents to make. Do you have a Scottish Terrier pattern? I always wanted to do one. It was my mother’s favorite dog. I think I would like to make the dragon. Well I would like to make a lot them but I have to pace myself.
The love heart T-Rex just melts my heart! I would love to win so I can make one of my own!
I would love to make a Valentine themed Puppy Pete, he just looks so lovable and snuggable it’d be perfect! Although, it’s really hard to pick just one because they all make adorable Valentine’s buddies!
I would sew Lucky Labrador – I have a yellow lab and my brother loves my dog – I would sew one for him.
The Valentine’s animals are just too cute!
So hard to choose but I would love the Keep Me Keepsake Bear!
I LOVE your Valentine Monster!
I love all of your patterns, and I would like to make the hedgehog. Your patterns are so well done and so easy to follow. I especially love the tutorials that you do with your patterns
I want to sew Kawaii Kuties – Easy Tanuki – RACCOON. I was looking for a possum but couldn’t find one.

I would love the lamkins lamb pattern because I’m baa’rmy about lambs
I’m making a pink Honey Bear right now. But I love pink. For Valentine’s Day I would love to make a sweet loving, funky friendly bunny with a red heart on his tummy.

I would love the gecko!! Maybe I’ll see about that one later!!

My grandson loves Dragons so that pattern would be perfect. I have a few funky friends patterns, I enjoy making them and find the instructions are easily followed even i can complete them and always get a great result
I absolutely LOVE the butterfly pattern for valentines day! It is so cute! I also love this pattern because when I was little I was sick on valentines day and my dad bought me a butterfly just like this one..I called it my love bug. So cute!
Love them all! But, since my grandson was born in the Chinese year of the Dragon, I would pick Diggles the Dragon. I also like Igor Iguana and Licorice Lemur a lot.
I love your patterns I have made the Giraffe pattern I made the sloth one they came out so cute I would love to try the moose pattern for a friend that is in Alaska on a mission.
I’d love the Guinea Pig. It’s a pattern I’m absolutely smitten with.
The Hedgehog is adorable, so many cute fabrics for this little one!!

We are expecting our 6th Great-Grandchild, a girl, and my choice of funky friends is the bunny…to go with the bunny quilt I am planning…I already have this pattern.
If I win, I would like the butterfly pattern…another Granddaughter loves Butterflies.
Thanks for the opportunity to win another one of your amazing patterns…all our Grandchildren have one.
I love the Keep me Keepsake Bear.
Made the platypus for my 2 great grandsons which they love. Now i would like to make them elephants
I loved sewing the Love Monster. It is a really sweet pattern. I would love to sew the rabbit-Easter is coming!
There are so many patterns I would love to try but I think the first would be the Calico Bear. I would make it for my grandson’s birthday.

I love those little elephants! I need to try to make them soon 😊
Oh my goodness!!! I absolutely love everyone of these gems…
Puppy Dog Pete, for my friend who just lost her fur baby.
I have been using my FFF patterns to make Valentine critters. So far I’ve made a Valentine hippo, giraffe, bunny (alright, it’s supposed to be an Easter bunny but it’s made with Valentine fabric) and a couple of Valentine platties. I would really love to get the lamb pattern next. She is so adorable!
Your patterns give me the boost to spread live with theses beautiful patterns thanks for being there and sharing your skills with us 🤗
Umm I meant Love😂😂😂
These are so cute! Maybe one day I’ll have time to make Valentines gifts!
I would love to sew fifi fox for my wife , we recently lost our beloved Siberian husky Jay we had him for 16 and a half years , he was such a beautiful soul . I would make fifi fox in the colours of our boy in his memory. We miss him so much
Love the moose patter
I would have a hard time choosing just one pattern as I love them all!! I would probably take the T-rex as I live in Drumheller, AB, Canada, the dinosaur capital of the world. We have the world’s largest T-Rex in the world.
I love all of these little happy funky friends! I am looking forward to my next doxie in memory of my uncle we just lost to Covid. I am going to make a flamingo also. He was a big fan of flamingos and had some great Hawaiian shirts that will make great flamingo keepsakes.
I would like the TRex. Would love you to “update” the rhino pattern too.
They are all so cute but the Hedgehog is a must for me
I think the T-Rex is cute in Valentine’s colors. And of course, sloths are! I made my Mom a Valentine’s themed sloth with a Funky Friends pattern last year!
I think the cow with heart spots!!
The elephant is on my list of extra cuteness . . . and the hedge hog 🙂
Hello from freezing Chicago! I am going to make a funky friend to keep me warm! I’m also going to make one for someone who just told me their beloved pet passed and she misses her so. All FF’s are awesome!
I was settled on the elephant, but that moose would surely be a hit for us Canadians!!!
I would love to make Ellie the elephant for my new great grandson – his first Valentines Day. Thank you for the opportunity.
I love Ellie the elephant she can be sewn for girls or boys for Valentine’s Day.
My favourite that I would love to sew is Lloyd Llama and Alice Alpaca!
I love the Trixie Triceratops and Diggles the Dragon patterns! But all of the patterns are so precious! 💕
I Love 💕 the Moose Pattern.
I’m new to stuffie sewing and I’d love the Pete Puppy pattern to try out.
I love them all but I think Jake the puppy would be really cute for Valentine’s Day! My nieces for love him!
Pauline, you never disappoint. I love all your designs. I have made the teddy bears, elephants and mooses so many times. I just love how easy the patterns are to follow – especially when you so graciously throw in the picture instructions. Digger Dachsund and the moose really stood out as festive and eye catching to me!
Thanks for offering the give away!
I would like to sew the elephant pattern for Valentine’s Day. I think any of the animals would work, but I just love the elephant
.
Hi. I adore all of your patterns. I would the love monster first.
Oh, my, gosh – it would be so difficult to choose a design. They are all so adorable. I’ve had my eye on Puppy Pete for some time. Such a cuddle cutie. Thank you for the give-away!
I’d like Ellie or Honey Bear, they’re just too cute!
I think Funky Friends patterns are the best to do any toys! I am currently in the process of making another Melody Memory Bear from some chenille fabric for a friend of mine. I made several Kangaroos, and have ready to sew Pete the Puppy Dog for one of my co-workers. Soft and huggable and great for kids! Thank you for all you do.
I would like to make an adorable moose with brown minky and valentine themed horns.
I would love to make a valentines version of “diggles” the dragon.
I would love to sew puppy Pete! He looks so snuggly and I know my girls would love him ❤️
Hi, Pauline – I had to share the adorable Ellie Elephant on my FB page for the world to see. They are soooo cute!
I would love to make my grandson Hunter the moose.
I think I’d love to sew a Peacock (which is the image I have shared on my FB Profile) 😀
You have so many adorable patterns to choose from. I think I would like Mickey Moose. I even bought some flannel checks to use for making him. So win or lose I am ready for the pattern. Thanks for the cuteness in this crazy world.
Oh my goodness when I saw the moose in Valentines fabric I got so excited! He’s got to be the sweetest Moose I have ever seen! I want him sooo bad!
Thank you for the opportunity to enter, I’ll buy him and a few more later. If I’m not lucky and I don’t win…lol
I would love to make Ellie the Elephant or Dilby Duck with some cute heart fabric!
Digger Dachshund
Love Funky Friends patterns. Animals can be made to look realistic or just plain cute depending on the fabrics.
I would love to try Gregory Gorilla
I’d love to sew the T-Rex for a belated Valentine’s present! Rexies have so much love to give, but their little arms can’t hug!
I think I’d like to sew the elephant or the fox, they are my favourites!
Well I am a Valentine baby conceived on the honeymoon I love them all but Puppy Pete just gives me goosebumps.
I just love the Valentine monsters. I’ve had the pattern for a few years and they’re so cute!
I would love to sew the Memory Bear but I don’t have the pattern as yet. Just between you & me I’d sew all of them if I could.
The one I am very interested in making is the peacock. It’s adorable. I wish I had more time and sew ALL OF THEM though
There’s way too many to choose from 🤣 Love the cow; moose and rhino.
The Love Monster is fabulous, but who could resist a Valentine’s T. Rex?
OMG, it’s so difficult to choose a pattern. I have a few, but I was t them ALL!
I love the love minster, but the hedgehog is also so lovable, it’s really hard!!!
Your patterns are the best!!
These stuffy’s make me smile! I let my sadness and worry dissipate when I see these cute little hug me’s! I can not wait to make an entire menagerie of all of them!
I would love to sew the T-Rex pattern!
I would love to sew the Love Monster!
OMGoodness! I may have to buy that love Monster pattern!! It’s SOOOO cute!!! Also love Ellie the Valentine Elephant!

Such adorable patterns!! So hard to choose just one but I have to say I’d choose the moose
HI Pauline, I just love your patterns and I have about 12 of them already, I’m just making Diggles the dragon, I absolutely love the moose made in the heart fabric above, I’ve made 3 but mostly in Christmas fabrics or snowflake fabric, but I will look out for some lovely heart fabric and make one for me. I would love to win the Dinosaur Pattern as I don’t have that one, he looks great in the pink heart fleece, and I do have some fabric similar and would love to use it for him.
I’m completely addicted to Funky Friends Factory patterns. I’ve made quite a few and my grandkids love them.
XOXO from Iowa
I’d choose Fifi the Fox to turn into a loving wolf (my daughter wants a friendly wolf to scare away the big bad wolf!).
I love all these Funky Friends, I wish I could sew Licorice the Lemur for this Valentine´s Day. Greetings from Guatemala
I have a great collection of your patterns but would love to win Heather, Joey or Micky. I would love you to design a Christmas Gnome ready for next Christmas.
I love all of these patterns. Now to decide which one I want.
Love ❤️ Sewing your patterns, please keep them coming. I’ve also looked everywhere, you were 1st obviously, for a Staffordshire bull terrier. My my hubby (Valentines gift). Can’t find on anywhere.
Any enjoy your Valentines everyone, under these strange times.
Oh and Paula thanks for the great patterns. ❤️
I would love to sew something different, like the T-Rex or the Dachshund that are simply lovely! Best regards from Mexico-City
First, I want to thank you so much for answering my question about making a Friend with minky. Happy Hobby Horse would have real meaning in my life.

WOW soooo many of us wanting another Funky Friends pattern 🙂

I would love to have the Georgie the GOOD LUCK Elephant INSTANT DOWNLOAD Sewing Pattern. Good luck with your drawing! I have made the Honey Bear, from my mother in law-s vest. It went together like a dream! THank you for that pattern.
My absolute favorite FFF pattern is Wodger Wombat! He comes out adorable and is always a hit. A Valentine’s Day wombat would be fun. Although, StaceyParsons’ Moose is very cute. It is one of the few patterns I do not have yet, in hearts it is adorable.
I’d love to sew Ellie the Elephant! She reminds me of my visit to Africa 😀
I love your patterns sooo much 🥰 I’d love to make a lamb for my niece. She’s obsessed!!

I love soooo many of your patterns, I think if you were generous enough to give me one if I was to win, I would pick Gregory the Gorilla or Kitty Kate. Seriously , if I win I will let you choose. Thanks for your generosity to whoever is the lucky winner.
Baby Bunny Rabbit – Crocodile Steve – Randy Rhino – Kitty Kate – Horsey Horse & Unicorn – it’s so hard to narrow it down!! (I guess that’s why I need to buy 10 at a time!) Any of these would be adorable in Valentine fabric. In fact, ALL of your Funky Friends are adorable in any fabric! Thank you so much for your generosity, and for sharing your creative genius with the rest of us!! 🙂
I am soooo in Love with all of those makes, the moose looks fantastic… I do think I would Love to create a sloth for my husband from his military uniform and add a heart to it, the heart is the heart that was placed in his hand whilst he was on life support in June 2020. He was critically ill with covid-19. There were times I never thought I would have him back. But he somehow fought and find his way home to me. ❤️❤️ Xx
Honey Bear would be just the sweetest thing to stitch up for Valentines Day!
I love hannah hedgehog and ellie the elephant, they’re both adorable and either would be perfect valentine’s day gifts. Thank you for the inspiration of all the patterns on this blog!
I love your patterns and would make very good use of Izzy Insomniac Teddy Bear if I were to be the lucky winner. Thank you so much for EVERYTHING you do 🙂
I would love to make the moose for valentines..I made the monster with my grandkids they picked there own material and sewed it them selves…
I have my eye on Harper the Happy Hobby Horse. Just last year I found out there are hobbyhorse competitions!!! How fascinating, am I right. I want to make a hobby horse myself and see more competitions.
New to your patterns but I’m in love. The hedgehog and moose are both so cute. I can’t make up my mind, there both Lovely

I just posted the Kate/Digger Valentine pets to my Pinterest under Sewing Patterns.
I posted a pic on my fb page!
Patch the pussy cat would be so cute with a heart pattern! 😊
Each time I work on a Funky Friend pattern, I feel like i am playing with a friend. If I won a free pattern it would be Kitty Kate. I cant get enough kitty patterns ( I already own Patch the Pussycat)
and my real cats love to spend time with me in the sewing room to help.
I love your patterns and am getting quite a collection now. Calico is my most popular make but I love making the other friends too. Just recently made Triceratops & I loved it, thank you
Thank you for your generosity!! Your designs are so fun! It’s hard to choose just one, but…. 🦊 may be next 🤞🏻
I’d love to make any of them! I’ve made two so far and they’re so much fun!
Oooh difficult, but I think my hubby would love to receive the peacock 🦚 xx I like Calico bear with heart nose 🥰 xxx
The Calico Bear pattern with a heart nose is a favorite. Teddy bears just mean LOVE.
I’m a lover of giraffes they are such a wonderfully graceful animal so my choice is RAFF if I win, now to get to the idea of VAlentines day it’s funny to say this but like the giraffes, Valentine’s day is the best holiday because it represents a day where you show your love for someone else or something that is deep in your heart so that is why I love valentines day
Love everyone’s Valentines’s Makes! Mine isn’t going to be done this weekend because of other things that came up this month but I have a hedgehog planned!
Ozzie Octopus has so many arms to hug you tight! Now that would be just a sight. All those suckers wrapped around while you are romancing throughout town. He would be really hard to put down.
I would love to have the Dilby Duckling pattern to add to my collection! He would be so sweet for Valentine’s Day!
I saved the Ellie Elephant picture to my FaceBook page! I just love that pattern!
Thank you for this opportunity to tell you which pattern I would love for Valentines. I have a daughter that is dealing with cancer and she loves monkeys so if I could win a monkey pattern I would love to make her a monkey to take with her to her treatments to hug.
All your patterns are lovely, it would be hard to choose just one. The Trex above is super cute and my favourite of your submitted examples. Although I think your lion would be adorable in pink and cream with a speckle of hearts all over the mane!
I’d like nothing better than some Puppy LOVE for Valentine’s! So Puppy dog Pete would be my choice. Thank you for you kindness and all these great giveaways Pauline.
There is nothing better than some Puppy LOVE for Valentine’s! So I would choose Puppy dog Pete. Thank you for you kindness and all these great giveaways Pauline.
Can’t wait to make my first Kitty Kate… all cut out! What a cute pattern!
I *NEED* to make Kitty Kate or Patches the Kitty for my kitty-cat loving 11-month-old, kitty has been her first word and I think I definitely need to make her a kitty in time for her birthday in a couple weeks.
I’d love to make the T rex. We’re huge fans of dinosaurs in this house!
What a nice way to start off 2021! I would choose the bunny, because whether made with hearts, stripes, polka dots or whatever, It reminds me of LOVE!! Best of luck to all!
I made digger with red valentines day fabric. It came out so cute.
I just love the hedgehog, he is so cute, but then the sloth is cute too
I would love to have the Calico Bear pattern to make a remembrance bear. I lost my Mother a couple weeks ago, and would like to make a bear for my three siblings from her clothes
All of your patterns are so cute! I am really hoping to win the free pattern!
Loving the creations shown here – and loving the fact that I have purchased nearly all of the FFF patterns already.
I would probably choose the new Keepsake Bear pattern as I have made dozens of Melody but now I am thinking that my granddaughter would love the more cuddly keepsake bear!
Keep up the fab work as I definitely need more patterns 🙂
Would love to try the love monsters
Crazy for ff patterns. I see a lovie lion in the future
I love my funky friends patterns, and now I have to make them all again in valentines fabric, they are so cute!!!
