Little Buddies

Updated: Mar 5

Hey everyone! It's time for another FREE PATTERN FRIDAYYYY!!! This Friday we're making a silly little pattern that I've had such a fun time making and wasn't initially sure I was going to share because it's a little goofy. But, my favorite things have always been silly little things and I'm sure some of you are the same way. So, today we will be making Little Buddies!

This pattern is super simple, super quick to make and obviously super cute! I've made so many of these Little Buddies lately! They're perfect for craft fairs, little gifts for the buddies in your life, or just filling a jar full of them just because you want a bunch of them (I certainly did not make a jar full of them... *ahem*). So, without further ado, let's jump into this week's pattern!
