When Phil Good the creator moved to California to build a new life he never imagined that he would be making stuffed animals he calls Jankies. At his table during the Applachian Festival, Mr Good says that he actually created these different Jankies from vintage fabric that his friends had lying around. He states, " I had moved to California and I was waiting on my laptop and other electronics to be delivered and I saw some vintage fabric laying around my friends apartment and I haf never sowen anything and I trued and here we are." He then goes on to have made ans sold over 50 different types of Jankies, the last being Octapussy a cat with eight long tentacles that was sold to a man in Australia. As Mr. Good signed up several people for his facebook fan page and people held the Jankies in their hands it was easy to see that Jankies make you feel good.
