Step 1: Prepare your felt pieces
Using the provided pattern, cut out all the bear parts – body, ears, arms, legs, and face.
Step 2: Stitch the pieces together
Use a basic whipstitch or running stitch to sew the front and back body pieces. Leave a small opening for stuffing.
Step 3: Add stuffing
Gently fill the bear with soft stuffing to give it shape and cuddliness.
Step 4: Add face details
Sew or glue on the eyes, nose, and smile. Use buttons or beads for extra personality!
Step 5: Finish with limbs and ears
Sew the arms, legs, and ears onto the body, then close up the remaining seams.
