Easy!

What you get+-

Meet Freddie! He's a tiny doll-sized teddy bear - perfect for snuggling up with any of the Dress Up Bunch dolls.

Freddie is all hand-sewn. That makes him a perfect little project for carrying around in your purse so you can do a little stitching anywhere you need to wait: dentist office, scout meetings, soccer practice - you know what I'm talking about. :-)

You Get. . .

  • A digital PDF pattern delivered by email. If you're not sure what that means, you can find more info here.
  • A full-sized pattern – no enlarging needed
  • Detailed instructions with lots and lots of step-by-step photos - you’ll never feel lost or wonder if you’re doing things right
  • Links to videos teaching you every skill you’ll need to make your own tiny teddy

    Size

    He's about 5 inches tall, an excellent size for hugging - if you're a doll. :-) Look how cute he is in the photos, snuggled up with his doll and softie friends! He's a good size for American Girl dolls too. He'd also make a nice Christmas tree ornament or gift topper - just add a hanging loop.

    Difficulty

    Easy! You're going to love this one!  Freddie uses just two super simple stitches to make - whipstitch and backstitch. Those stitches are so easy I teach them to kids as young as six. Seriously - cutting the pieces out is harder than sewing this guy up. You can do it! :-)

    What You Need+-

    You'll need. . .

    • 1/2 sheet wool felt for the body (I used Tahitian Sunset)
    • scraps of wool felt for the nose and belly (I used Black and Copper)
    • black embroidery thread for the face
    • matching embroidery thread for the felt
    • polyester fiberfill (I love Fairfield brand Soft Touch Poly­fil Supreme)

      You might also want. . .

      • freezer paper (optional - but I love being able to skip the tedious tracing)
      • embroidery needle
