Quick & easy make

The instructions are clear & easy to follow, with great results. I had to make some adjustments to fit my bear, as it is chunkier than the recommended build a bear model, but it turned out well.

Easy pattern and great results

As a newbie sewer, this is my first teddy bear outfit and is for a present. The instructions were clear and easy to use. I will be getting more, and will be working to get good enough to make the teddy bear denim jacket.

Wonderful pattern! It is an excellent fit for my new Build-a-Bear!

Review

Pattern easy to follow with both written and pictorial instructions. Made this little dress in less than a day for a bear of similar size. It was a very enjoyable experience.
