Has anyone any patterns for soft toy or accessory unicorns they would recommend please. DD is mad about them!

Not a pattern, but fabric...

I'm doing the FPP one that Sandra did, but finding it fiendishly difficult - like doing a wrong way round jigsaw!

Was that the sort of thing you were after?

Ah ha!  Found this on the Sewmag website - I think it's a free download too!

This might be easier than the FPP one.....

I was just looking for this one. I'm sure I have the mag somewhere but can't find it.

You can download them online Sandra, but I've just been on the website, and it isn't behaving well at all, and won't let me log in.

When I checked though, I have a copy of this issue saved on the PC, I can send you a copy if you want?

No. It's ok Jessie.  :) Thank you.

I was trying to find it for Mama likes to make...I have it somewhere but couldn't find it. I didn't know and couldn't remember which mag it had come from.
Unicorns are very popular at the moment aren't they?

You've probably found it by now Sandra, if not it's issue 58.  There's a nice Flamingo in another issue too! :)

I've just printed both off, no idea when I'll make them!  It's Jemima Puddleducks for Easter.....

Yay! Thank you...page 90.

I didn't look properly because I was reaching awkwardly over the back of a settee to where my mags are stored.

It is rather lovely isn't it? I think I spotted the flamingo.  :)

Thank you so much for all the help. The fabric is fab and I definitely will give that pattern a try.

Unicorns are very popular here alright. I've made her a few things to wear with some cotton I got a few years ago when I did a lot of quilting and she has a few bits bough in the shop as well.

Don't know if you can get this in the UK but saw this at the grocers (https://www.kelloggs.com/en_US/products/kellogg-unicorn-cereal.html) today.  Kellogg's Unicorn cereal. Almost bought some for the little girls next door.  :flower: Was going to post a photo but it was gigantic. I'm used to being able to modify the size in the opening image tag but it doesn't work here. It does on other SMF forums I belong too. I'll ask in tech later.  ;)
