About this pattern

This plump and cuddly platypus is taking a special vacation at Sew HQ, all the way from the land down under.

He’s bright and colourful, just like his native home of Australia, stitched in bold prints from Cloud9 Fabric’s Water Land range. Designed by Corinne Bradd, stitching this funny fellow is definitely a didgeri-do.

Essentials

  • Assorted cotton prints
  • Toy stuffing
  • Coordinating sewing thread
  • Buttons: 2cm, two; 1cm, two
