What kind of wolf pattern do you want?

Oct 12, 2021 | A day in my life, Blog, NEW Toy Patterns

I KNOW that a LOT of you will be verrrrrrrrrrrrrrrry excited that the winner of the vote for the next pattern was a wolf BUT I have to say…

A wolf???

No, seriously – I had never ever thought of designing a wolf pattern. I have never lived anywhere where there are wolves so it is quite an “unusual” animal for me and I am battling a bit with this design – so I’ve decided to let the Funky Friends let me know what KIND of wolf pattern they’d like me to design!

Do you want a
STANDING,
SITTING,
LYING or
HOWLING
wolf?

      Just to add to the issue – I voted howling, but my real vote would be “Sitting Howling” – not to add to the issue too much……………..:)

        I am so excited about another funky friends pattern. My sister lost her husky last year. I am in UK and she lives in moorochadore Queensland so it would be lovely to make one of these for her. Lying would be different so that gets my vote. Thank you for bringing us lovely easy to sew patterns . X

      Howdy! Believe it or not, I have a degree in wildlife biology and did lots of undergrad research on predator-prey relationships – primarily in wolves! So I absolutely LOVE this new pattern idea!!! Iโ€™ll have an entire pack of wolves of my own!!!

    I like the laying one or howling. They look more like a wolf instead of a dog.

    A lying down wolf would be my choice. A number of years ago Konica Film put out a wolf that was sitting and howling and although it was cute, you couldn’t see the face much. But whatever you choose, I’m sure it will be awesome.

    I like them all, so I asked my husband to decide. He picked the lying one, as it’s different. A contented wolf. So that’s what I voted for. ๐Ÿ™‚

    Dearest Pauline, I wanted to tell you why I voted for sitting wolf. 30 years ago my precious now deceased husband and I were on our camping honeymoon in Colorado. The first morning we awoke to a wolf sitting just a few yards from our tent. She was there every morning we were there. She didn’t stay once we were up and about. We called her our guardian angel. I thought you might like our story. So of course I voted for sitting wolf.

      Wow, that is an amazing story Patty! ๐Ÿ’•
