I've shared these cutie Penguin Pillows for a few years now and always got asked for the pattern. They're a super easy and quick sew, you probably have everything you need to make one already. No special supplies, just quilting cotton, wool felt, stuffing, and basic sewing supplies. I couldn't stop at one size though. I started reducing and increasing the pattern, which led to the mini version for 18" dolls, and then scaling up even bigger until I had the Giant Bonus size.

About the Pattern
The pattern comes with 2 files: the original penguin instructions and pattern pieces (11" x 7"), and a bonus Giant Penguin file (18" x 15", basically double the original). For a mini penguin, just print the original pattern pieces at 50% scale. The giant file can also be printed at smaller scales to make a whole waddle of different sizes. This is a very beginner-friendly project and works great with quilting cotton, minky, or flannel.
