UPDATE: This competition is now closed and the winner was Anne Cah.

It's competition time, and you can win $50 worth of fabric and patterns with Voodoo Rabbit and Funky Friends Factory

We are so excited that Pauline has finally finished her Fleur the Flamingo sewing pattern because we have been begging her to design a flamingo toy pattern all year :) While I was picking fabrics to make a shop sample we ended up having an argument over which fabrics to use. In the end I made up 3 Flamingos and we are settling the argument by running a ...

Let us know which Flamingo you think is the cutest - to be in the running to win a $25 fabric voucher from Voodoo Rabbit and a $25 Funky Friends Factory pattern voucher. 
Without further ado, here are the contestants.

  8. It's way too hard to pick just one,
    They are all so cute and to make them would be fun!
    Rose Pink is the one I pick for me,
    But I'll definitely have to make another 2 or 3!!!!!

  19. I love Geekly Chic. The colors are natural enough that she looks like a real flamingo, but the glasses make her different and funky. The purple legs are exactly the right colour to combine with the pink and black to really make the sliver of colour in the eye pop. It's not as obvious a choice of colour as a darker pink would have been, and I love it all the more for it.

  20. They're all lovely but my favourite has to be Rose Pink. Still a traditional flamingo colour but with a bit of flare to make her that little bit individual and special. Nice work!

    Rose pink is my favorite. She matches the flamingo tattoo on my arm!

  29. Only ONE....they are all so cute and I can think of different people each Funky Flamingo would suit.
    But I guess Geekly Chic, can see her taking off the glasses, fluffing up the feathers and there's a party animal underneath that meek exterior just waiting to soar.

  30. I think it's too much to ask to choose just one...but if I HAD to plunk down on the side of a decision, it would be Geeky Chic. She is so me!
