Shields Sewing Center, Iowa City Sewing Class

Create a 17" Jointed Teddy Bear that will capture your heart! We will begin by discussing the technique for cutting out bear fur (this one will be cut out for you and ready to sew) . We will then sew the body parts together and stuff the arms, legs, and head. Now the fun begins!! We will attach shoe button eyes, a nose, and embroider our bear a mouth. Lastly we will attach the arms, legs, and head using plastic pop joints and stuff the bear's body. We'll even add a bow to the bear's neck to get him into the holiday spirit!
