If you know my little Disney heart, you know the Jungle Cruise is my favorite Mk ride! Are your engines purring? I know mine are! Spokes-kitten Flannery (look at those toenails!) bids you welcome to the 1st (and possibly) Annual 
Now this is a loose and free-flowing event (like my thoughts and my midsection) …..just post your animal print splendor and I will repost/link up and we will have many stylish lynx-links to enjoy! 
Some lovely style bloggers will be stepping in to lend a hand with insights into styling your way thru the animal kingdom and of course, I will be tracking down that notorious often pirated video of Karl Lagerfeld singing ‘If I could talk to the animals’ while wearing a full giraffe costumes! 
So if you haven’t made your New Years resolutions- may I suggest…..
SEW WITH MORE ANIMAL PRINT!!!!
To encourage and entice you:
Divine Mess ala Mood Fabrics- ooh!
Or perhaps, this little charmer from fabric mart-
Burberry Prefall 2013 Giraffe perhaps? 
a little Mary McFadden? 
Armani Prive…with or without the hat-
Remember- all it takes is style to rule the jungle!

I’ve got my eye out for some animal print jersey to make a maternity wrap dress. But I can’t promise you I’ll follow through. I’m not sure how a baby bump will look in cat print. And I’m still a little scarred from my Tigra blouse. But I want that button on my blog! I love it!
You know…babies LOVE animal print! Hint, hint…..
I bought some emerald green leopard print stretch denim last summer. I planned to make a skirt from it. Now that Pantone’s color of 2013 is emerald, this might be the perfect time to sew that skirt. Thanks for the inspiration!

We are so on trend! Surely we get a permanent seat with the cool kids at lunch time!
Oh…….I sure hope so……
I’m kind of in love with that giraffe coat. Damn you, Burberry!
I’m happy to report that i purchased some animal print ITY from FabricMart which is slowly making its way through winter storms on FedEx trucks as we speak…let Jungle January commence!
Burberry giraffe- who knew!? Fabricmart is my fav charity, I swear I donate liberally!
Ooh, I’m so excited! If you were to look in my closet, you might think I thought leopard or cheetah prints were appropriate in all circumstances. And you would be right. My husband just rolls his eyes now. That coat is fab, by the way.
It IS appropriate right? I mean we cant both be wrong, right? Heehee
Yes, of course it is!
I’m shamed – I don’t do animal prints! Maybe I could do the background – leaves and the like? Would this count?
If this is your biggest flaw, youre still gold! Of course, you could consider this a ocelot gaunlet thrown down at your feet……
Oh my gosh! You’ve got my whiskers a twitching for a safari! I am making a safari outfit right now, but it is out of khaki colour twill – more ‘Meryl Streep Out of Africa than Me Tarzan You Jane’ but I still want to follow along.
Please! Every safari needs guides, right?
Just like on the Jungle Cruise at Disneyland (and World).
Yup, complete with antiaircraft hippos!
I love animal print! I have always wanted an animal print wrap dress…must make one for this!
Ooh! A wrap dress- so Diane von ‘Fur’ stenburg!
I’m crashing into the jungle – this will be my first ever piece of animal print clothing – yes really! I’m thinking it might be a purring Pendrell…
Fabulous! That will be a winner!
Oh my goodness! That Burberry coat is TO. DIE. FOR! Swoon!
Seriously!
Yep…might have to sell the children…
Id wrestle a Beckham for it! Well, depending on which one of course- she probably has lots of upper body strength from those birken bags!
I wouldn’t fight with her…but I’d wrestle him any day of the week!
I have almost finished my first animal offering to the beastie Gods. Just need to hem it. Been working early. Watch this space.
Me too! Ran out of bias tape on new years day!? Aargh!

I’m a sucker for animal print and have some cloth at the ready!
One can never have too large of an animal stash!
Roaaaaarrr! I’m ready to hunt down my first animal print fabric. Hmm… Lions and tigers and giraffes. Oh my!
Oh, now I have a video clip to get!
I would love to join I have the purfect pattern n fabric. How will we post the finished project/ picture.
If you let me know you are posting or link to this, I will repost! So glad to have you play!
I’m in! I’m digging out my forlorn faux fur coat UFO in leopard print out of the wardrobe. BTW Is there a pill I can take to make me look like that giraffe woman?
If that was one of my giveaways, we’d all get one! Bring out the first UF(urry)O!
Lions and tigers and bears? OH my!
May have to join in. But I will have to shop the stash – I am sure there is an animal or two in there.
My my my, I just love that giraffe print!
Does lining count? I just cut gray charmeuse for a motorcycle jacket lining and I am so excited about getting started on the sewing!
If not I have a beautiful green silk tiny leopard print that is just purring to become a blouse (after the jacket of course, FOCUS Becki!)
That soumds like a fun make!!!
You’ve thrown my sewing plans right out of the water so I can get in the jungle! Leopard print on its way, Woop! Or should that be RRRRrrrrrr x
Wooop and grr! Whats the plan?
Easing my way in to animal print world with a kimono sleeve top. Picturing it with my slim black pants, red lippy and a scowl. Animal print was not even on my radar before you set down this gauntlet. Consider yourself an enabler. Oh, and can’t get the HTML thingymajig to work. Help, make my blog look fancy! x
Oh, the button will be the death of me! I secretly think it’s because Flannery the spokes-kitten is a mean little thing! I will get my tech minions on it!
Hmmmm….I’ve got a black/white snakeskin look fabric, now to figure out what to do with it for this…an Alma blouse with black trim, perhaps?
Oooh! A classic shape with a bit of poison- love it!
Finished and blogged my first animal item…. on to another one soon.
I just saw you on pattern review- love it! I cant wait to get you all linked up, you over-achiever, you!
Yummy examples! I love all this animal print! Inspiring, indeed!
I am strangely very attracted to that giraffe jacket… Weird. I wish I had time to join in!
Jungle January will just have to live in your heart…..sigh

mmmm. Burberry Giraffe style is GO!
You just can’t go wrong with giraffe- it’s very elongating.

Oh, and I really, really love that Mary McFadden jacket. Really.
It is very lovely!
