 Enjoy a calm, creative day making your own handmade teddy bear in this relaxed, small-group workshop. Designed with plenty of time built in, this extended 5-hour session allows you to work at a steady, enjoyable pace without feeling rushed.

This workshop is ideal for confident sewists who are comfortable using a sewing machine and ready to take on more detailed construction. While you don’t need to be an expert, there are several intricate stages — including sewing curves, shaping, turning, and precise assembly — so prior sewing experience is essential.

With step-by-step guidance throughout, you’ll cut, assemble, stuff, and finish your bear, learning techniques that build both skill and confidence.

You’ll leave with a beautifully handmade teddy bear, along with the knowledge to recreate it again at home.

• All toy-making supplies, including toy stuffing and teddy bear eyes & nose 
• A printed copy of the pattern to take home 
• Use of sewing machine and tools 
• Expert guidance in a supportive, small-group setting

 This workshop is suitable for:

• Confident beginners and improvers 
• Sewists comfortable using a sewing machine independently 

This workshop is not suitable for complete beginners

 By the end of the day you’ll have:

• A completed handmade teddy bear to treasure or gift
• Greater confidence sewing curves and shaping soft forms
• Practical techniques you can use in future projects
• New inspiration and confidence to tackle more playful sewing
