It took me a while to make the Funky Friends Factory signature bear with a cute smiley face but I think he’s turned out rather sweet! This teddy bear sewing pattern is button-jointed. (If you want a non-jointed bear try Melody Memory Bear Pattern). Signature bears are a fun way to record an event or celebration, special occasion – new baby, christenings, weddings, parties, 21st birthdays and, of course, graduations.  A unique, homemade personalised bear will be a treasured keepsake for years to come.

RECOMMENDED FABRICS:

I used calico fabric (muslin) but Calico Bear doesn’t have to be a signature bear. LOTS of people use this teddy bear sewing pattern to sew lovely keepsakes using baby clothes or make memory bears as bereavement bears to remember loved ones.

  • Main Fabric – 45cm x 110cm wide / 18×44 inches wide.
  • Contrast Fabric – 25cm x 20cm wide / 10×8 inches wide.
  • 4 large buttons for arms & leg joints – about 2½ cm/1 inch.
  • Eyes – 2 small buttons – about 12mm/ ½inch for eyes (or craft eyes)
  • Scrap of felt (or embroidery thread) for nose.
  • Ribbon for around neck – 50cm/20 inches.Main fabric – 35cm x 110cm wide (14inches x 43inches wide)
