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!

Great book , full size patterns is a bonus . I've made Hamish . I found them easy to follow

I have 4 Sarah Peels Luna Books. Can highly recommend. On 2 occasions I emailed with a query, the response was approximate, no longer than 2 hours.

Was a present, they loved it. Easy to follow instructions fantastic end product

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.

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 .

My wife uses these books to make Christmas gifts for family and friends, highly recommended
