Absolutelly THE best book!! I started to make teddies a year ago and got more and more absorbed... As my interest grew so did my collection of bearmaking-books. Of all my books this one is my absolute favorite. The pictures alone would get you started right away! It describes everything into the smallest detail, gives excellent tips and containes beautiful patterns.

I am very pleased with this book as it is for beginners as well as more experienced bear makers, I particularly liked the added extra projects, such as making glove puppets and even glove puppets for the teddy's themselves which is a novelty, also a marionette teddy complete with his own stand.
Lots of hints and tips to make things easier, the pictures of the bears and the story that goes with them really made me smile.
Beginners will easily be able to make the unjointed bears,I would say there is something for bear makers of all levels to enjoy, even miniature bears are included if you don't mind something that is a bit 'fiddely'.

Best for Bearmakers
25 Nov 1999
Format:Hardcover
Bearmaking 101 is an EXCELLENT book. I have been making jointed Teddies for many, many years and I find this book a MUST for any bearmakers complete library. Illustrations are clear. Instructions are easy using both inches and millimeters. She illustrates sizes with phrases such as "using the size of a U.S. nickel". Pictures are brilliant. With this book, you will be making a wonderful bear in no time. Unlike other artists' books, Carol-Lynn Rossel Waugh puts the tools and materials section in the back of the book. Be sure to check this out before you start your bear. Buy THIS book. You won't be sorry

Improved my teddy bear face making...HUGH smiles now. Good book. Kinda quirky and not very traditional but found it to be useful and excited to want to try their techniques. Very charming looking bears.
