      I’m inspired! I’ve just got the pattern. I see the yard is discontinued- what did you use?

        Brilliant! It's a fun pattern.
        I used the recommended snowflake yarn. I was sad to see recently that it has been discontinued although it was quite difficult to work with. Peter Pan Precious Chunky might be a good alternative - I have made a bear out of that and it is similar. It's out of stock on here at the moment (how annoying!) but other sites may have it. I also used 18mm safety eyes rather than felt, which I got from celloexpress.co.uk - there are all kinds of toy-making goodies on that site.
        Good luck!

        Thanks Marion - must say I'm a bit sick of this pattern now! Think I made 12 in total, or it may have been 13 - not sure!

      How gorgeous are your cushions, I didn't realise until I looked at the second picture they all have different coloured faces. What a great idea.

        Thank you Michelle. I’ve made another 4 since those photos, in varying colours to match the personality &/or the decor of the recipient
