Un-bear-ably Cute: 18 Adorable Teddy Bear sewing patterns
Teddy bears are such an important part of childhood (and a handmade teddy bear can have even more meaning).
As kids, these soft and cuddly toys were our companions, confidants, and protectors from the monsters under the bed. And even as adults, we can’t help but smile when we see a teddy bear in a shop window or on the shelf at home.
