Quilted cutie alert! The amazing Jess Entwistle is back with another must-make quilting project. Eagled-eyed quilters might recognise this adorable polar bear cushion from Jesses Christmas quilt. Her quilt did so well with you all we just knew we had to upload this little guy too. Sew this polar bear pattern and gift it to any new mums for a sweet addition to the nursery or give it to a polar bear fan for Christmas (check out our polar bear knitting pattern to for a giant rug version). Once you’ve sewn Jesses polar bear pattern all that’s left is to name him. Peter, Pablo, Patty… we’ll leave you with that decision!
Jesses polar bear pattern and Christmas quilt originally from issue 80 of Love Patchwork & Quilting but now they’re up on Gathered for free. Make sure you pick up a copy of their latest issue for more fun quilting projects. Now it’s over to Jess for her tutorial.
