Default Re: looking 4 a Koala bear pattern

G'day Dwayne,
Can't help with a pattern at this point, but you should get sufficient pictures to allow you to make your own pattern by simply typing "Koala" into Googles Images..... small point of interest, Koalas are marsupials meaning that the young are carried in the mothers pouch....they are not bears nor related to bears and as memory tells me, their name is a native word for "no water" in that they seldom need to drink, gaining their moisture mainly from the vegetation they feed on.....hop this helps, and if I can source a pattern I will contact you.
Regards
John
