Use these cute little bears for loot bags, gift decorations, hair
decorations, lapel pins, sachets, or tuck them in a lunch box.
Use scraps of cloth and ribbon.
Make the Bears:
*
Trace the pattern on paper and cut it out.
* Cut two pieces for the bear and two pieces for each ear.
* Embroider or paint the face.
* With right sides together, stitch around the pattern. Leave an opening
at the top of the head to insert stuffing.
* Clip seams and turn right outside out.
*
Stuff the legs, then sew across lines A and B.
* Do the arms the same way.
* Sewing across will prevent the stuffing from coming out of the arms and
legs.
*
Stuff the tummy and head.
*
With right sides together, stitch the ears and turn. Press.
* Gather across the bottoms of the ears and sew them in place on the head.
*
Sew up the opening on the head.
Dress as a boy or a girl; a bowtie for a boy doll and a dress for a girl
doll.
Make the Dress:
|
*
Fold the material in half, then fold it in half again.
On the double fold cut a quarter circle starting about one inch down from
the top edge. This makes the cape sleeves.
Turn under the top edge of the material and gather it to fit around the
neck.
Tie it in the back with thread or ribbon.
