From my customers I have learnt which aspects of sewing bears they find challenging, and I have stripped these away. So Elsie bear is my simplest bear for new sewers and experienced sewers alike.

I know that memory bears are often made during times of grieving, or as gifts for friends. So this video is especially designed to give you the help and support you need to sew your Memory Bear Elsie Bear with confidence
