A collection of adorable and cuddly plushies featuring unconventional looking friends - these Patchwork Pals each have an unique personality and story and they're looking for a new loving home with YOU!
Hello~ My name is Jeana and I’m so excited to introduce to you the world of Patchwork Pals!
Patchwork Pals is a collection of cute plush friends dedicated to spreading comfort, love, and hope. Each Pal shares a story of resilience and warmth and their quirky, mismatched patches remind us that even in imperfection, there's beauty, joy, and the promise of fresh starts.
Each Pal measures approx 9" / 23 cm tall when standing (Button the Bunny measures 10" / 26 cm) and is made of soft faux fur material, 1.5mm fabric for their patches, embroidery details, ribbon bows and a cute button eye! The final product will also include an official tag! This product is intended for ages 14+ and should not be given to children or furry pets, please consider it a collectible item and not a toy!
DISCLAIMER: Colors may vary between your screen and the actual product. If your plush appears deformed upon arrival, please squish and kneed it gently as the packaging/transit can temporarily misshapen the plush. Please note that plushies are handcrafted by multiple individuals during the production process and that each plush may have its own unique shape. Some may contain minor flaws that do not impact the overall design, including but not limited to: stray threads, small gap in embroidery, and slightly uneven ears. Please do not expect a "perfect" plush.

If you want to pledge for multiple items, or a different combination of items than the bundle tier provided, please pledge for the reward tier of the highest priced item, then select the add-ons through the options available using Backerkit's add-ons feature!
As most backers are from the US, I have written shipping prices in USD. Please note that the above shipping prices are rough estimates and may be subject to change or fluctuate slightly, thank you for understanding! Shipping will be calculated based on your country and the weight of your package and you will be charged separatelyfor shippingafter the campaign is over.
For allinternational backersoutside the US, please note that you'll be responsible for any customs/VAT fees that may incur. It is illegal for me to change the price or mark the items as gifts on customs forms. Shipping to the EU is available!!
Enamel pins, keychains and patches will take less time to produce than plushies so backers who only backed for these items may receive their package earlier!
Please note that this is just a rough estimate of the timeline and that exact times may vary depending on number of backers, external situations, holidays, etc.
🧵 Early bird spots are limited tothe first 48 hours! If you un-pledge during the campaign you will not be able to re-pledge for the early bird deal again if it's been past the first 48 hours!
🧵 When you pledge on Backerkit, you'll not be charged right away, so that you will not be charged for your pledge until the end of the campaign and only if the initial goal is met. If the campaign is unsuccessful, you will not be charged at all. You can upgrade, downgrade, or cancel your pledge at any time before the campaign ends!
🧵 You can choosewhich Pal(s) you would like after the campaign ends, where I'll send out a survey to collect your shipping address and the specific rewards you want to choose
🧵 Shipping is NOT included in the tier pricing! Shipping will be calculated and charged AFTER the campaign is over based on the weight of your package and your country. Please see the shipping costs chart for an estimate of the shipping costs, but please do not add any shipping costs to your pledge!
🧵 If you have any more questions, please don't hesitate to leave a comment, or you can email me at [email protected]
🪡 Experience: I've had experience running multiple crowdfunding campaigns and have made various kinds of products including over 100 pin designs, keychains, washi tapes, lanyards, apparel, bags and more. I have reliable manufacturers for all my products that I use to ensure a smooth production process and quality products for you all.
🪡 Quality: Plush samples have already been made to ensure the standard of quality for mass production and I've worked with this manufacturer on previous projects. Products with major defects will go in the reject pile, but minor defects may still be possible. These shall be minimal and not affect the overall appearance/use of the products unless closely inspected. By backing this campaign, you understand and agree to the possibility of these minor defects in the rewards you receive.
🪡 Shipping Time: Delivery times are estimates and there is always the possibility of delays. Please be patient with the production and shipping process! I try to be as transparent as possible about any delays and update frequently via Backerkit. By backing this campaign, you understand that delivery times are not 100% guaranteed.
🪡 Fees: Note that refunds will not be issued under any circumstances once production has begun, as the funds go directly into production. Shipping is not charged initially. By pledging, you understand and are willing to pay for both the items you pledge for and the subsequent shipping fees charged after the campaign ends. Note that backers are also responsible for all customs/VAT fees that may incur. If you do not pay these charges, shipping may need to be paid again if the package is returned to sender, and that no refunds will be issued whatsoever.
