Read moreLooking for your next project to while away an afternoon? Look no further than our easy-to-stitch Bush Buddies! We teamed up with maker Katie Weychardt to bring you this fun, fuzzy DIY that is perfect for both beginners and more experienced sewists. This project was featured in Issue 48 - but now you can access this cute DIY for the teeny price of only $2! This purchase allows you one download that includes the pattern and instructions (including photo steps) in an easy-to-follow PDF to sew all three of these furry friends: Kookaburra, Koala and Platypus – all yours to keep or perfect to give and share! Just a little note, make sure you are ready to download on the right device, as you will only be able to download once. We used Kunin Eco-fi, a polyester felt made from 100% certified recycled plastic PET bottles (you can find several sellers of eco felt on Etsy) but you could use almost any type of fabric (preferably non-stretch), both plain or printed – perfect for scrap-busting! The pattern is designed to print at 100%, but if you want to print it at a difference size to make them bigger or smaller, who are we to hold back your creativity! We'd love to see your Bush Buddies coming to life. Feel free to tag us @peppermintmagazine and use #peppermintbushbuddies to show us your new Aussie animal pals!
