Meet Maximus Mouse! He’s a little mouse with a big name and maximum cuteness. His favourite food is cheese and his favourite dessert is a sweet meadow strawberry (pattern pieces for both felt foods are included in the pattern). Maximus is a quick sew and sits up easily on his own. His adorable little hands and feet are smallish pieces, so if you’re a beginner, you may want to start with one of my easy patterns.
Difficulty: Basic/Intermediate
Designer: Pauline McArthur / Funky Friends Factory
Size: 23cm/9 inches tall (with a 15cm/6inch tail)
Suitable Fabric: Maximus can be sewn in most fabrics like quilting cottons. The contrast pieces are a bit small for very thick fluffy faux fur but you can use fleece, minky, or velvet for the body to make him even more cuddly.
