Go ahead and cuddle that koala!
Imagination can take you Anywhere!
A quirky cuddly koala makes a wonderful buddy. She is luxuriously soft when made with minky, but other fabrics such as fleece also work well.
This sewing project is suitable for an adventurous confident beginner since the there isn’t any complicated sewing and I walk you through each step with detailed instructions and photos to illustrate each step. Your creativity is encouraged with variations to help you customize your stuffed animal. Variations can also help you plan for the skill level and time commitment of your project.
Dress him up a little with a bandana or give her a cute dress. Both are free tutorials in my mini tutorials section. Not only are they fun accessories but they are a quick and easy sewing project to embellish your new Aussie friend. (link below)

Mardi Clifford –
I would have to say this koala pattern is one of my favorite patterns to make. My granddaughter is fond of it to as it is one of her favorite toys. With a nursery with an Australian animal theme it fits in perfectly.
As usual with Rena’s patterns, the detailed instructions and photographs makes this such a wonderful pattern to make. Not necessarily the easiest make for a beginner, but definitely worth making, with options for beginner to more advanced sewists included.
