The anunpas are so cute , however, trying to figure out the pattern- what
Pieces you need, is confusing. I even went to my guru sewing SIL and she had issues with it as well. My experience n seeing is din making quilts so I thought I could do this. There was really no easy directions to follow to put it together. So I just worked through it myself. So I think it would be fair to say you need more sewing experience than I have to make this. In the end, my whale was really cute. And I emailed the lady who sold the patterns and she was very nice.

The racoon hot water bottle cover was easy to sew. I didn't look at the directions, so I can't comment on those. I did add a seam allowance for the pieces that were appliqued onto the main fabric because I wasn't how much it would fray.
It was a Christmas gift to my daughter and she loves it!
After a spur of the moment hot water bottle purchase by my husband to keep the kids warm on morning wagon rides to preschool, we needed covers. Conveniently I remembered that Twig+Tale created a collection of animal cover patterns. I made a penguin as a test. It was a hit. Next up a fox was requested, an instant classic.
This pattern is excellent and perfect for any beginner. The base offers a great foundation for anyone looking to create their own cozy animal cover. Once again a 10/10 from me for Twig+Tale
This was the most enjoyable 1 day project I've done in a while. I showed all the patterns to my son and asked which one he liked most. He requested an orca whale🙄 "there is no orca babe" , "but you can sew anything mom" 😍 challenge accepted 🤣 so I hacked the regular whale a bit. I cut down the belly and changed the shape a little, added the extra white markings and the dorsal fin. Viola we have an orca. I used wool fleece from an old jacket and the white is from an old cotton sweater. Hand sewn and hand embroidered/ applique.
The instructions are amazing aa usual and I think some friends kids will be getting some extra (but late) Christmas presents this year because I want to make more. So fun.
Made this in a couple of hours. So easy and fun to make and great to use up scraps.
I used these designs as applique on clothes, rather then hot water bottles.. changed the scales a little, so it fits nicely on a children's scenic.
I recommend this ebook very very much.. tons of fun!
Love this pattern, comes together well and really cute.
Just found this photo of the owl hottie I made
My youngest granddaughter asked for a hottie and hottie cover so I made her the kitten one then another one picked the fawn then another didn't choose so made her the owl which she loves and I think it's the best one I've made too. Will have to find photos of the others
I haven’t made the new ones yet but my other hottie covers are selling well
