Funky Friends Mitch the Monkey Sewing Pattern

Finished Size: 42cm (17 inches) 

Funky Friends Mitch the Monkey is the sweetest little monkey. He loves to snuggle up and cuddle, especially if you feed him bananas for breakfast! He looks fabulous in ALL sorts of colours, not just plain’ monkey brown! Mitch can be made with most fabrics from quilting cottons to fleece and minky and even fake fur for a fun fluffy look. Mitch would make the perfect pattern for sewing a child’s best friend or even as a memory toy with the spaces on his face, pawpads and ears having contrasting fabric.

The full size paper pattern comes with an instruction booklet. In addition to this, Funky Friends also have tutorial videos to help guide you through your toy making journey.
