Love Bear

Teaching Project — This fabric project was inspired by the book The Bears Song by Benjamin Chaud. Students cut from a pattern, drew details with fabric markers, stuffed their bears with fiber fill, and hand stitched the seams with a basic running stitch. Fancy tulle and a broach made the finishing touches.
