Ellie Elephant Pattern By Funky Friends Factory

Finished size: 33 cm (13 in) tall.

Ellie Elephant is one of the most popular patterns — especially for babies who love to grab their elephant by its trunk and drag it around the house! Make this elephant in cottons for structure or in fleece/minky for a soft cuddly version. Add texture by using satin or corduroy for the ears.

Recommended fabrics: Most fabrics work well — non-stretch fabrics (cotton drill, quilting fabrics, corduroy) as well as knit/stretch fabrics like fleece, velour, chenille or minky.

Specific requirements:

Main fabric – as per pattern layout (sufficient to cut body piece).

Contrasting fabric or texture for ears (e.g., satin, corduroy).

Optional: Lightweight interfacing if using floppy fabric.

Polyester thread in matching colour.

Marking tool (fabric pencil, chalk).

Craft eyes (or embroidered eyes for a baby-safe version).

Toy-stuffing material.

Small felt scrap for tail tip (optional).
