New Teddy Bear Pattern
I joined TeddyTalk.com so I could learn more about the makings of teddy bears. Initially I wanted to look at photos of bears made by artists so I could see how they made the noses. I was in for a real shock when I saw the beautiful bears. Mesmerizing to be truthful. If you haven’t looked at that site, please check it out.
Last evening I was online in the website and checked into a category I had never been in before. What luck! I found a free teddy bear pattern. I printed it out and now intend to try making this one, making with a few tweaks of my own. This is a beginners pattern, perfect for me since this will be just the 2nd bear I will make. Now I need to find the supplies I need. It’s interesting that there are no good suppliers nearby. I wonder if the popularity of teddy bear making doesn’t include craft stores. I will be checking one more that is about 20 miles from me. Quite a drive and using a bit of gas, but if they do carry what I need, then the trip will be worthwhile. There is also a book outlet across the street, and maybe if I am lucky enough, I can find a teddy bear book in the craft section there. Worth the trip to check things out.
