Something a little bit different today….but still sewing. My silk curtains that I made a few years ago were in need of a little TLC. I had to take a piece off the edge that had been ruined by the sun. So, whilst I was giving them my attention, I decided to give them a lovely tie. With some fabric left over I made a tie which kept the pleats in place and gave the curtain a nice little extra flourish ❤️ It was so simple to make, I wish I’d made it years ago. The most difficult bit was deciding what size to make it. Fo you enjoy making things for your house 🏡 ? #sewistofinstagram #sewers #SewOver50 #AsewingLife #SewingCommunity #sewingproject #handmadecurtains # makeyourown #sewingismytherapy #curtainmaker

Catching some rays of sunshine ☀️and enjoying the beautiful water 🌊in Greece. #plushieadventures #plushielife #plushielove #foxlovers #foxlove #foxlover #feltlove #toymaker #felttoy #felttoys #feltcrafting #feltcraft #feltcrafts #feltproject #feltprojects #felt #feltdiy #feltideas #handmadefelt #handmadeanimals #handmadeanimal #handmade #sewing #sewist #sewistofinstagram #sewers #SewOver50 #AsewingLife #feltlove #craftylife

The trick to cutting a smooth edge instead of a jagged edge is in the way you use your scissors…. ✂️ Hold your scissors wide open and put them on the edge you’re cutting. ✂️ Slowly close your scissors, moving them around the edge you’re cutting in 1 long continuous cut. ✂️Don’t use lots of short, sharp, cuts as this will make the edges jagged and not smooth ✂️ As long as your scissors are sharp (try to never use blunt scissors) the edge will be round and smooth. ✂️Watch the reel to see how it’s done. The reel shows a paper pattern being cut but this applies equally to cutting a piece of fabric. I hope this helps as smooth edges improve the look of the finished item. Let me know if you have any questions. #teddybears #teddy #felttoy #felttoys #feltcrafting #feltcraft #feltcrafts #felt #feltdiy #feltideas #handmadefelt #handmadeanimals #handmadeanimal #handmade #handstitched #handstitch #handsewn #handsewing #sewistofinstagram #sewers #SewOver50 #AsewingLife #feltlove #felttoys #toymaker #SewingCommunity #sewingproject

How long does it take to stuff a tiny Mathilda Bear with lots of tiny felt scrap pieces? ….sometimes a lot longer than you’d think. Still, it’s a good idea to use them up , cut into tiny pieces, rather than throw them away🐻❤️🧵. Do you have a job that always takes longer than you think it should? #handstitching #slowstitching #feltanimals #makeyourown #SewingCommunity #toymaker #sewinglove #felttoy #feltcraft #SewOver50 #sewersgonnasew #AsewingLife #felt #Handmadecrafts #Handmadeteddy #Felttoy #Feltcrafts #Teddybears #felttoys #feltcrafting #feltcrafts #feltproject #feltprojects #felt #feltdiy #feltideas #handmadefelt #handmadeanimals #handmadeanimal #toymaker

Here is Beatrice Fawn in all her finery. She hasn’t shown up here for some time so it feels like it’s her turn for an appearance. She’s wearing her beautiful dress which is made out of a gorgeous embroidered silk. Her dress uses such a small amount of fabric that it’s perfect to use up any beautiful scraps you may have lying around. Do you have any left over fabrics that could be used to make some really small clothes? #handstitching #slowstitching #feltanimals #makeyourown #SewingCommunity #toymaker #sewinglove #felttoy #feltcraft #SewOver50 #sewersgonnasew #AsewingLife #felt #Handmadecrafts #Handmadeteddy #Felttoy #Feltcrafts #Teddybears #felttoys #feltcrafting #feltcrafts #feltproject #feltprojects #felt #feltdiy #feltideas #handmadefelt #handmadeanimals #handmadeanimal #toymaker

Here are a few tips which will help when sewing eyes on a felt toy…. 🌼 use pins to check the position of the eyes 🌼 use a few strands of embroidery thread to make the stitches thicker 🌼 leave a strand of thread dangling before making the first stitch…you will cut it off at the end 🌼 sew the first eye and then push the needle through to the opposite side of the head to sew the other eye 🌼 when the last stitch is sewn, sew the thread into the head, away from the eye 🌼 pull the thread slightly and cut it off. It will then shrink back inside the head so it is not seen 🌼 do the same with the dangling thread from the start so that is also hidden from view. #Ducklovers #duck #handstitching #slowstitching #feltanimals #makeyourown #SewingCommunity #toymaker #sewinglove #felttoy #feltcraft #SewOver50 #sewersgonnasew #AsewingLife #felt #Handmadecrafts #Sewingprojects #Sewersofinstagram #sewingismytherapy #feltlove #Felttoys #Sewingcommunity #Sewover50 #feltlove #feltcraft #Teddybears #Toymaker#sewingreels #Sewingpatterns #Softtoys

Here is some very cute bunny bunting that I made 🐰🐰 It’s easy enough for children to make as it only uses a very simple running stitch. This is the bright version but I also made it in pastel colours which look equally as cute.

When Grace was home this week she started to write the stories for the characters who don’t have theirs yet: Tilly the Field Mouse & Gladys Duck.

Here’s Grace hanging the bunny bunting last night. I designed it as a kit for children to make. It’s going to be offered as a prize for the @sewasoftie event in July. Trixi, who runs sewasoftie encourages children to sew and runs a month long event when she hosts many creative people sharing lovely sewing tutorials suitable for children. If you know any children who would like to take part in some sewing, head on over to sewasoftie in July to enjoy the tutorials. #Bunnytoys #Rabbittoy #Rabbitpattern #Bunnypattern #Bunny #bunnytoy #Sewersgonnasew #Makeyourown #Feltcraft #Sewingprojects #Sewersofinstagram #sewingismytherapy #feltlove #Felttoys #Sewingcommunity #Sewover50 #feltlove #feltcraft #AsewingLife #Teddybears #Toymaker #Sewingpattern #Sewingpatterns #Softtoys #Softtoy

@suestoney has been making Tilly the Field Mouse this week and then she’s been letting her loose around her kitchen. She looks like a cutie in her embroidered crown, skirt & slippers doesn’t she?🐰👑 Tilly is handsewn so she’s a nice relaxing project to do. She doesn’t have her own story yet as I’m waiting for @_grace_walters_ to come home from uni this weekend and write some more stories ✍️ As soon as Grace has written them, I’ll start sharing them 😀🌸 #Mouselove # miceofinstagram #feltlove #toymaker #felttoy #felttoys #feltcrafting #feltcraft #feltcrafts #feltproject #feltprojects #felt #feltdiy #feltideas #handmadefelt #handmadeanimals #handmadeanimal #handmade #sewing #sewist #sewistofinstagram #sewers #SewOver50 #AsewingLife #feltlove #craftylife #handstitching #slowstitching #SewingCommunity #sewingismytherapy

This is Caspar who is 9 years old who has just made James Fox all by himself 🦊 His Mum sent me a photo of him and I was so absolutely impressed with what he had made that I asked permission to share the photos with you. He is now being James’s tailor and making his waistcoat with a blueberry lining. These images are so fabulous for so many reasons. They show that we should never underestimate how much children are actually capable of with the right amount of encouragement and support. They also show that boys can absolutely do things that may be considered a female biased activity. Hooray for Caspar, enjoying an activity that brings him joy and that he’s obviously got an amazing talent for 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 #foxlovers #foxlove #foxlover #feltlove #toymaker #felttoy #felttoys #feltcrafting #feltcraft #feltcrafts #feltproject #feltprojects #felt #feltdiy #feltideas #handmadefelt #handmadeanimals #handmadeanimal #handmade #sewing #sewist #sewistofinstagram #sewers #SewOver50 #AsewingLife #feltlove #craftylife #dollmakers #dollmaker #boyscansew

You can use felt scraps, cut up into tiny pieces to stuff your bears. It saves them being wasted which is good for the environment 🌏 I also add all of my cotton thread ends into my stuffing pile so nothing is wasted. This little bear being stuffed is Mathilda Bear, a cutie full of scraps. You can add some dried rice in as well if you want to give a heavier, squishier feel 🐻 Mathilda is being made by my daughter Olivia when she came along to the Earth Day Acts of Kindness Day in April. #Sewingpatterns #Softtoys #Softtoy #Sewingprojects #Sewersofinstagram #sewingismytherapy #Sewingcommunity #Sewover50 #Sewingclass #Sewingclasses #Sewingtutorial #Toymaker #Felttoy #Feltcrafts #Handmadefelt #Sewinglove #Handmadecrafts #AsewingLife #feltdolls #felthandmade #handmadeteddybear #Craftylife #Feltlove #Felttoys #handmadefelt #handstitching #slowstitching #feltanimals #sewingreels

The kit is being launched this weekend so I’ll be posting photos and reels this week to show it off 🐻🐻 The bears are made from a lovely wool blend felt which is beautiful quality and the instructions are a dream to follow, so easy. The price of the kit is £10 making it really affordable & a great price to give as a little gift or as an opportunity to dip your toe in the handmade toy pond 😀 Let me know if you’d like me to reserve a kit for you as there will be limited kits available initially. #handsewingproject #craftygifts #sewingcommunity #sewover50 #asewinglife #diycraftkit #handstitching #slowstitching

Slow down ….I’ve spent a week on holiday with my very good friend Nicola from @her_outdoorz and she took these lovely photos of me planning my next sewing kit. Nicola writes about wild seasonal inspiration, reconnecting modern life back into nature. We’ve spent the week brainstorming ideas, in between long periods of relaxation. We’ve talked about how Theodore Bear & Friends connect to nature and how I can bring seasonal elements into their world to share with you. Look out for more of Nicola’s photos appearing in the world of Theodore Bear & Friends.

Bluebell Rabbit is putting the Benjamin Bear Cubs to bed. They each get a kiss goodnight before being tucked up for the night. There’s not quite enough room so they all need to shuffle up a bit. 🐻🐰❤️ * * * * * #teddybear #teddy #teddypattern #feltstuffies #felttoy #felttoys #feltcrafting #feltcraft #feltcrafts #feltproject #feltprojects #felt #feltdiy #feltideas #handmadefelt #handmadeanimals #handmadeanimal #handmade #handstitched #handstitch #handsewn #handsewing #cuteteddy #sewing #sewist #sewistofinstagram #sewers #SewOver50 #AsewingLife #AsewingLifeBenjaminBearCub

I am very pleased to introduce you all to the newest member of Theodore Bear and Friends. Welcome, Benjamin Bear Cub🐻 This pattern is a cute little hand sewn project which is easy enough for complete beginners. It's a perfect project to do on a calm, relaxing day or even to sew in front of the TV🧵🪡 Benjamin has contrast colour ears and is sporting a rather dapper bow tie.🎀 He measures approx 15cm when complete, so he's a little bigger than Mini Mathilda Bear and quite a bit smaller than Theodore Bear. He's best made out of wool blend felt. If you don't have any felt, I am in the middle of adding some colours to the website that you will be able to purchase soon. I'm doing that in response to so many people who have struggled to find the right felt to buy so this should make it easier for you. If you'd like to make Benjamin Bear Cub (and why wouldn't you? He is extremely cute ❤️), then head to my website to place an order. If you would like to order some felt to make him, send me a DM to let me know but it should be on the website soon. I look forward to seeing a whole host of Benjamin Bears popping up very soon🐻🐻🐻🐻🐻🐻🐻 There is an animated adventure of multiple Benjamin Bear Cubs climbing up a tree which I released a few weeks ago which you might like to see if you haven't already. It’s a cute one. Happy sewing. As ever, if you have any questions. just get in touch. I love hearing from you. x * * * * * #teddybear #teddy #teddypattern #feltstuffies #felttoy #felttoys #feltcrafting #feltcraft #feltcrafts #feltproject #feltprojects #felt #feltdiy #feltideas #handmadefelt #handmadeanimals #handmadeanimal #handmade #handstitched #handstitch #handsewn #handsewing #cuteteddy #sewing #sewist #sewistofinstagram #sewers #SewOver50 #AsewingLife #AsewingLifeTheodoreBear

Mothers Day gift ideas ♥. If you're looking for something beautiful and thoughtful to give your Mum, one of our sewing kits or sewing patterns could very well be the answer. The sewing kits come beautifully packaged and wrapped in tissue paper for a thoughtful gift. The patterns are available as a digital or paper copy and will be a gift that gives hours of sewing pleasure. Mothers Day is Sunday 27th March in the UK and Sunday 8th May in the USA and Australia. You may want to gift this to someone or maybe even gift it to yourself. I hope the day is filled with lovely things and memories and hopefully, a bit of sewing. * * * * #teddybear #teddy #teddypattern #feltstuffies #felttoy #felttoys #feltcrafting #feltcraft #feltcrafts #feltproject #feltprojects #felt #feltdiy #feltideas #handmadefelt #handmadeanimals #handmadeanimal #handmade #handstitched #handstitch #handsewn #handsewing #cuteteddy #sewing #sewist #sewistofinstagram #sewers #SewOver50 #AsewingLife #AsewingLifeTheodoreBear

Coming soon….The felt to make the characters will be available to buy by itself. Lots of people have been telling me that they have struggled to buy the felt so I thought I needed to make it easy for you. The felt is a wool blend meaning it’s lovely quality with a soft feel, it’s easy to work with and it produces a beautiful product. The marl colours with their heritage feel have been carefully chosen to give the toys their whimsical character. 🦊🐻🐷🐰 * * * * #teddybear #teddy #teddypattern #feltstuffies #felttoy #felttoys #feltcrafting #feltcraft #feltcrafts #feltproject #feltprojects #felt #feltdiy #feltideas #handmadefelt #handmadeanimals #handmadeanimal #handmade #handstitched #handstitch #handsewn #handsewing #cuteteddy #sewing #sewist #sewistofinstagram #sewers #SewOver50 #AsewingLife #AsewingLifeTheodoreBear

I would like to say a huge thank you ❤️ to each and every person who follows this account. It only started 2 months ago and already this small space of the internet has grown to be a fabulous community. Today it reached 1000 but that’s just a number. It’s knowing that the number of people who are enjoying seeing the cute photos and videos is growing and hopefully that the joy is spreading ❤️ I have always shied away from social media, both in my personal life and for my little business, but I have been blown away by what an absolute delight it has been to be on Instagram. I consciously interact with nice and kind people, many of whom share a mutual love of sewing, craft, creativity and all things nice. I love the conversations that I’ve had with so many wonderful people who have inspired me and who I have loved chatting to. I promise to carry on making posts and videos that are whimsical, cute, adorable and hopefully brighten your day. I hope to encourage as many people as possible to bring the characters I have created to life so that they can carry on bringing joy🐻🐷🦊🐰 I would love it if you would leave a comment telling me something, anything about you 🗣I would love the chance to hear from you and learn a little bit about you. Have a lovely day.
