detailed instructions

This book is better than most craft books because of the detail the author goes into. There are full size patterns for jointed and non jointed bears, bear puppets,and accessories like a quilt, pillow, and knit outfit.

This book will help you bring your own bear to life.

Learn Bearmaking walks every aspiring bearmaker through a clear step-by-step process of bringing their own creation to life. Judi Maddigan did an outstanding job making sure all her bases were covered. The reader will discover not only pattern pieces and sewing directions, but also numerous tips and pictures, illustrating how to make their bear turn out well. I highly recomend this book. If you can use scissors and a sewing machine, Judi's book will successfuly teach you how to make your own bear. I believe you will find that bearmaking is a lot like parenting. You can put everything you know (or don't know) into this little critter (including your heart) and still come up with something entirely unexpected.
