On a whim, I decided to buy a monkey pattern on eBay from Marilyn Jensen (Springtime Designs). My designs are all for teddy bears, so why not try something new - from someone who has already developed a good pattern.
I'm here to say, Marilyn's patterns are awesome! Dogs, cats, an elephant - I want them all! She has included extensive and illustrated instructions with the monkey pattern that I know are going to be a great help.
You can find them here (and I get no commission on sales. :lol:) : http://www.ebay.com/sch/springtime_desi … 4340.l2562

Oh I love the papillon pattern! Her patterns are gorgeous, unfortunately I never have the self discipline to try other artist's patterns ~ I have only made one bear by another artist (my first bear) and given my strong wish to change everything about it I just made my own! I love her monkey pattern and I can say it's better than mine lol. My first attempt at a money ended up looking like a mole so now he's a baby mole to go with my woodland friends, the fox and hedgehog etc etc.
They're great patterns and hopefully you'll show pics when you've completed him!
I've been trying to find a website for this artist, but no such luck! Does anyone know whether Marilyn Jensen has any PDF formats of her patterns, specifically the howling coyote? I've emailed Edinburgh imports to see if they stock it in pdf - just waiting on a reply. It's not that I don't want to pay - happy to do so! Just don't like the wait I'm actually trying to find a wolf pattern, but failing that, husky or coyote would do. DD has an obsession with wolves and huskies, so thought it would be a nice surprise..
Here's a link, Moo, to some of Marilyn's patterns. A coyote is toward the bottom of the page. http://clothdollpatterns.com/patterns3/id42.htm
I have bought patterns from her Etsy shop and they are easy to make. https://www.etsy.com/shop/SpringtimeDesigns
It shows she is on vacation.
Some of her patterns are in PDF format.
