Do you wish to make this Valentine's Day truly memorable?
Well, instead of buying teddies or soft toys from the market, gift your loved one a homemade teddy bear.
Needle or sewing machine Scissors Marker or chalk Sewing pins Matching thread Cardboard One meter of fur or cotton fabric Half a meter of the fabric of another colour Two plastic eyes (18mm) Small plastic black or brown nose Polyester fiberfill (cotton)
Materials needed
First, take a full-size cardboard and draw a teddy bear design of your choice. Then, cut it with the help of a scissor. You can also search for different designs and patterns online.
Then place the cardboard on the fur or cotton fabric and cut out the pattern. After this, cut all four pieces of the fabric pattern the size of 1/4 inch and stitch the front and back sides of the cloth.
Then stick the nose by stitching it from the backside. Leave one part and sew all the other parts of the cloth, keeping them on the pattern. Now turn the cloth upside down. The stitching work is almost done.
After this, tuck the eyes on the face and fill the fabric with polyester fibres or cotton. Stitch the left part of the cloth. Teddy’s body is ready.
