It is an improved pattern; from my first snowman picture frame I tried to make. It's in original patterns links, too; but here is the direct link to my pattern blog. Thanks Lillibet.

Wow. I haven't made fridgies but I have been printing interesting patterns for them. I think I want to do this. I will find my book and see which ones I have. Thanks for this idea and all the pattern links!!!

[Mom w/a Motif]

Moomooo where did you find the pattern for the Jalapeno guy? It's the 8th picture down. Our kids would love that (family joke/thing...) I like the owl fridgie and I will probably do an apple and some other fruits. My friends' kitchen is in fruit and mine is apples and roosters.

I am working on a batch right now for Valentines day...

Just got to figure out how I will place them on flat lollipops so i can give them out in the hosptial and the eye clinic.

I might make some so that the Veternarian clinic can put them up for sale for the funds to help when people cant pay their bills... etc...

Wholly smokes Lillibet!!!! Now that's a lot of fridgies. Still thinking about this one but I have to get some other things done first.

[Craftyky]

I have just finished my first two fridgies

 

Im very proud of myself.

 

First one is a Giraffe,

but looks more like a pony (neck needs to be a little longer next time lol)

 

 

Second is a cat

 

[moomooo]

There you go Craftyky:

 

Now you will be hooked for sure in to the fridgie world.... Lovely work you did on both .If you put some brown spots on your giraffe it will for sure look like a girafe but the pony look is just as beautiful..

Welcome aboard

Hugs

Lillibet

[Craftyky]

Your so right moomooo, Im hooked lol.

Ive been printing out patterns like crazy and going through all my scraps.

They are so cut and there will be more to come

[unicorn37757]

Those are so cute Craftyky:clap

[Craftyky]

Well Ive made my 3rd fridgie lol.

 

I was going through my scraps and found some grey wool and felt is was just right for a Koala fridgie. After spending around an hour on the computer I wasnt able to find a pattern, so I made my own.

 

This is how he turned out:

 

 

I made two circles out of the grey for the body and head. Out of some cream wool I made six smaller circles for his ears and paws.

[moomooo]

Ohhhh My dear craftyky:

 

I see that beautiful koala and a designer with in you... Congratulations..

Before you know you will be whipping up some fridgies just by looking at things you would never imagine seeing it like a fridgie...

 

I make thingks that are big into a fridgie by using baby or sports yarns or sometimes if its saying double crochet then i would do hdc and the item would come out smaller in size so its just a wee of imagination...

And you are doing just great on that..

hugs

Lillibet

[Mom w/a Motif]

craftyky I love your koala! It's adorable.

[unicorn37757]

What a cute Koala!

[Mom w/a Motif]

These are from an old pattern book from Annie's Attic that I no longer have. It was a Pansy kitchen stuff book. Potholder, towel topper (I think), etc....

 

 

You could probably find any pansy and use it for this, though. Sorry the picture is so blurry. My camera isn't very good. (Should be clickable)
