Luna Lapin And Friends, A Year Of Making: Sewing patterns and stories for heirloom dolls: 4

Description:

A wonderful new collection of sewing patterns from the author of the Luna Lapin sewing books, Sarah Peel. Immerse yourself once again in the whimsical world of Luna Lapin with this collection of patterns and instructions for five delightful animals.

Luna Lapin is a quiet and kind rabbit with impeccable taste and, in this collection, she introduces us to some of her dearest friends. This brand new collection of toy sewing patterns will resonate with sewists of all abilities and the designs are perfect for making wonderful heirloom toys for friends and family which will be treasured forever.

Introducing Luna Lapin's New Friends proudly presents five characterful animals and their delightful wardrobes: Ziggy the hedgehog, Ottoline otter, Hamish the Highland cow, Dora the pig and, of course, Luna herself.

Author, Sarah Peel, takes classic garments and recreates them on a miniature scale with exquisite fabrics including Liberty cottons, taffeta, corduroy, velvet, lace and wool tweed. All of the animals are made with wool felt and hand sewn using overstitch/whipstitch - this makes them a perfectly portable project that you can work on when you're on the move or when relaxing in the evening. Sarah recommends machine sewing the garments and there are tips and tricks for sewing small items.

Have fun sewing each animal's outfit whether it's Ziggy's military jacket and pants, Ottoline's anorak and fisherman's top (which is perfect for keeping her warm on her nautical expeditions), or Hamish's kilt and ruffle top. And Luna also has a new outfit in this collection - she wears a beautiful red velvet skating coat over a full skirted dress for a magical twirl around the frozen lake.

As well as the animals and their delightful outfits there are the much-loved whimsical stories that really bring their characters to life. Immerse yourself in the timeless appeal of Luna's Little World and discover how Luna met her friends with this collection of charming stories about the characters and their adventures.

There are step-by-step instructions and diagrams for all of the clothes and the animals, and the templates are included at full-size so you can get sewing straight away.

5.0 out of 5 stars Adorable dolls, easy instructions

H.B. · 29 August 2025

I love these so much. The clothes are interchangeable and it feels like a Build A Bear experience for adults. The patterns are printed at 100% and easy to hand copy onto paper or photocopy. The stories are sweet and don't take up too much of the book so you don't feel short changed on the patterns.

5.0 out of 5 stars A joy to make

K. · 10 June 2025

Beautifully produced book with life sized patterns and easy to follow instructions. Create a range of characters. Once you discover Luna and friends; trust me, you'll not stop at just making one! They are addictive!!!Enjoy, as each of your creations come to life.Great as presents.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another great book in the Luna Lapin series

L. · 10 November 2022

My collection is complete with this 4th book in the Luna Luna Lapin series. You don’t need the other books as all the animals have their own patterns and the outfits are interchangeable. A word of warning though. These cuties are adorable and you’re going to become addicted to making them. Beautifully written stories and easy to follow instructions. Luna and friends have a cult like status and it’s easy to see why. You can buy all the items to make the characters/outfits from the Cool Crafting shop in kit form which is my preferred choice. Making these ‘friends’ has given me hours of pleasure and has given so much pleasure to the people I’ve gifted them to. Photo added only shows one make from this book, which is the winter skating outfit. Still got lots to make from this treasure of a book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect gift for creative friend

M.R. · 19 February 2025

I bought this book as a gift for a lovely friend who had already made a couple of Luna Lapin from the first book. Seeing this one has a highland cow and an otter.Given as a gift and received with delight!

5.0 out of 5 stars This book is even better than the others!! 🤎🖤❤️ How can that be?

W. · 10 November 2022

Well, I will tell you! I think this book is so lovely, because of the magical stories that accompany the gorgeous photos of the characters and the stunning clothes! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟Luna and her friends are mostly easy to make, with some practice. I’d recommend all 4 of Sarah’s books. For a better idea of how to make these charming little characters, join the Facebook group… Luna Lapin’s Little World by CoolCrafting. You will find a group of people, who love Luna and friends, and are all so friendly and helpful! Once you buy the book, you can download and print the patterns, by going to DavidandCharles.com.

5.0 out of 5 stars Luna Lapin Book 4

M.J. · 10 November 2022

Thank you so much Sarah, I have purchased Book 4 as a Christmas present to myself and very excited to see the new animal and patterns, (I’ve had a little peek!). As a novice to sewing, I purchased book 3 in lockdown. Having never made anything ever, I worked my way through the book. The patterns and instructions are very clear and a joy to make, even for a novice like me. I now have all the books and the characters are an absolute joy to make. Thank you Sarah, I am so glad that I discovered Luna and her friends. I cannot recommend them enough and if I could give more stars, I would!

4.0 out of 5 stars Simple and sweet.

A.C. · 9 January 2024

Lunar herself is simple to sew .All completed by hand except ears .(quicker on sewing machine.)Completed in two days ,few hours sewing each evening and afternoon.Patterns easy to follow and cut out. I photocopied pattern first on my printer.Sewing clothes …I chose to use a couple of pattern pieces from Otterlines trousers and shirt. I just altered the culottes pattern to take out pleat . They were short for Luna but the length I wanted. I was making PJs and slippers.Just had an old nightshirt hanging about . Easy to do . So she’s at least got some clothes on.Sad there’s no bloomers/knickers in this book .I think the actual clothes patterns do demand some knowledge of sewing garments.I personally felt instructions could have been written better. I will make some of the actual designs but need suitable fabric. Which means strip to fabric shop.The felt I bought a 1m.x50cm and had ample but not enough for two.For me they are quite expensive to make (felt especially wool is quite expensive). Need to get my money’s worth out of the book .Enjoyed making them ,they aren’t really toys (not washable or robust due to felt ).To be fair they are labelled as heirloom dolls so not toys as such .

Amazing patterns!

I like how clear and easy the directions are. I’ve made 3 of the animals so far and am very happy with how they turned out. I definitely recommend this book to anyone wanting to make stuffed toys.

Wonderful book. Super fast delivery.

Lunas neue Freunde

B. · 6 December 2022

Ich liebe den neuen Band. Jedes Buch der Reihe kann eigenständig für sich stehen da der Aufbau der Bücher identisch ist.Einführung, eine Geschichte in der die neuen Protagonisten vorgestellt werden, jeder Freund mit seiner Garderobe und der dazugehörigen Anleitung und Materialliste und zum Schluß die Schnittmuster in Orginalgröße. Luna ist in jedem Band zu finden, bekommt aber immer neue Kleidungsstücke passend zur neuen Geschichte.Ich mag die liebevolle Umsetzung der Freunde mit der jeweiligen zum Freund passenden Kleidung, die aber ohne Probleme austauschbar ist.Das Buch ist in englisch geschrieben, die Anleitungen sind bebildert, so daß man (auch unter Zuhilfenahme eines Wörterbuchs) alle Schritte nachvollziehen kann. Ein bißchen Vorkenntnis ist sicherlich nützlich.Die einzige Schwierigkeit für mich ist: ich muß mit den Stoffen manchmal improvisieren, da ich hier nicht alles bekomme. Da kann dann aber ggf. auch ein Secondhandladen hilfreich sein.Ich hoffe Sarah Peel kennt noch weitere Freunde von Luna, vielleicht gibt es ja auch noch weiteres Zubehör wie in Zwei der Vorgängerbüchern. Mich würde es freuen.
