Pattern for Franklin the Turtle Stuffie

My 2 year old granddaughter loves "Franklin". Does anyone have a pattern to make the stuffed turtle? I can't find the stuffed animal or a pattern anywhere. Her dad and I would be forever grateful. Thank you.

Easy, peasy. Use google, but use images and type in Franklin the Turtle and you will have all sorts of hits. :) I'm a grandmother of two.

Great idea. Thank you and I don't want to steal from Franklin. I really can't find him anywhere!

This is patently stealing from poor Franklin ( I luv him ) but this would give you a great toy, and since you are not selling it, I don't think Franklin would really mind. Find a photo of Franklin online or scan one in from a book or colouring book. Print out on a transfer sheet. Iron it onto a washed cotton muslin. Turn over once done onto another piece of muslin or green cotton and sew around the outline, leaving enough of the seam open for turning. Turn, stuff and sew the opening closed. You have yourself a real Franklin cutie. It wouldn't have arm and legs etc, but would be well loved anyway.
