Welcome to my sewing adventure with stuffed animals!
Teddy bears can make things a whole lot better. So why not make a few yourself and have some easy, breezy, crafty fun? This Teddy bear design deserves a big thank you to the generous creator, Wendi at Shiny Happy World, for making this pattern free.
My little bear was cut out in some comfy orange flannel, leftover heart speckled cotton and natural linen scraps.
I stitched it together on my trusty Singer Fashion Mate in about 10 minutes after competing with my cat for desk space.
Stuffing took the majority of time, taking care to fill Warren's extremities first. Find a good radio station, because it takes longer than expected.
Stuffing tiny bits and bobs of Poly-fil while listening to Mozart on the radio.
My bear must be very cultured by now!
I left a large unsewn length alongside his leg through which to squeeze in lots of fluff.

After loads of stuffing, I think he's turned out a very handsome bear indeed,
upright and standing tall,
French knot eyes and all!
Whew, what a lot of fun, crafty work.
Time for a cup of tea with Warren! 🐻
This was one of the easiest projects and thoroughly enjoyable. You can find the free pattern on Wendi's website here:
Thank you for visiting! And Blessings to you!
